ACLs
- setfacl - to add,delete or modify ACL
- getfacl - display ACL info
Examples
setfacl -s user::rw-,group::r--,other:---,mask:rw-,user:fred:rw- file1 will give the owner rw, group read and others nothing except user fred who also has rw access. No one can exceed rw perms (defined by mask) getfacl file1** - shows current ACL setfacl -m user:george:6 file1 will allow user george rw to file1 in addition to current permissions (N.B overwrites existing ACL) setfacl -d user:fred:rw- file1 will remove special permissions for user fred
The ls -l command will display if an ACL is set as the output will appear as follows:
-rwxr-----+ 1 root sysadmin datestuff... file1
Note:equivalent commands of HP are chacl and lsacl . However, currently it is not supported with vxfs filesystems
