Is it possible to restrict admin access to specific KB within Knowledge/Service portal?
User criteria definition restricts all users as specified, except if they have 'admin' role - then restriction is bypassed.
Commenting admin override code in script include where canRead and canContribute functions are defined does not provide desired results.
Has anyone ever implemented this type of requirement?

No worries! Hope it works okay for you.
Of course if an admin really wants to get in they can always change the configuration, give themselves the role etc so there is that caveat. You should have an audit trail if that happens though.

In my humble opinion, there is no way of achieving this requirement without manipulating system ACLs which in itself is dangerous.
