Auth level differences?
if you give someone auth lvl 1 doesnt that give them the ability to admin commans and pull free items from the item list noclip ?
There is no difference. You can use ownerid as auth 1 to give yourself auth 2 to access all of the server commands.
what I wanted to know was if I give someone auth 1 on my server wont they be able to pull stuff in and use noclip ....theres a plugin that needs you to be auth 1 but I dont want people running around with admin powers.
Granting auth level 1 allows them to use admin console commands such as noclip and god, and spawn items in.

What plugin are you refering to and what mod/admin powers are you trying to give out without granting auth 1? 
Prod is the plugin it runs off auth levels but I'm looking to have certain have it but just that no admin powers ... if I use atuh lvl 0 everyone can use it if I make it auth lvl 1 then I have to give the people auth lvl 1 but I dont want them to be admins just be able to use /prod.
I've never used that mod, but I'm curious if you could set:
  "Prod": {
    "authLevel": 0,
    "Passive Mode": true
  }​

Would that set it to only grant /prod if one had the permission prod.passive.use?

I dunno, maybe https://umod.org/plugins/entity-owner can do you what you want without auth level 1, by just granting entityowner.cancheckowners

it doesn't work on individual permissions it still goes off auth lvls .. I have entity owner I just like the way prod plugin displays its cleaner looking the prod you get from entity owner gives to much stuff I just want the owner not the rest of the stuff..
My suggestion doesn't seem like it'll work.
Yes it works awesome I have it the same way it's just everyone can use it.
