Another thing you can do is to use IP addresses on your ACLs, or allow
anonymous read access (system:anyuser). If the underlying data is going to be
anonymously available via the web, then there's no reason not to allow
'system:anyuser rl'. That will be more secure in the long run than having
authenticated long-running daemons, and might perform ever so slightly better
as well.
