The environment we build by default (and that’s the components we ship to do things like a Second Life™ environment), we’ll try our best to respect permissions infrastructure as best we can - but there are limits to what we can practically do, we cannot alter the fundamental laws of mathematics and computer science (see my previous post for more on this) for example. - OpenSim is not a Virtual World [...] [...] Infact we’ve never ever said anything to this effect.

IClientAPI.SendMoneyBalance(int), etc. There's a sample module called "SampleMoneyModule" which shows you how to implement those, plus deal with things like transferring objects and parcels of land in combination. Small FYI: You need to add "-helperuri http://simname:simport/" to your login string (in addition to -loginuri), as the SL client verifies money transactions via a seperate HTTP protocol before sending the UDP packets to confirm it.
