Rainman ID Viewrights is normally a feature given to people with Rainman access. Viewrights changes the way forms load up on AOL. Instead of the title being the first thing shown in the title bar there is additional information shown in this format:

[321-23780.3197.MAINPAGE] AOL News: Today’s News

This is what viewrights would show when going to Kw: news. 321-23780 is the token to the form. 3197 is the Rainman group id and MAINPAGE is the Rainman External Object ID.

In order to turn on viewrights on any OH/Internal account you invoke the “ry” token. However, the “ry” token is viewruled for normal accounts. So you have to invoke the “rz” token in addition to the “ry” and you can turn Viewrights on and off at will on any AOL account. This works because “ry” sets a host side flag which says you can now have access to use the “rz” token which is the token that actually turns the Viewrights on for your account.
