MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I might appear stupid or not having read the manual, but whatever I try, I can't get setfacl to work (keeps failing: setfacl: acl_get_file() failed: Operation not supported). I read the manual and it says I should add acls as option to fstab which I did: /dev/ad7s1g /home ufs rw,acls 2 2 or use tunefs to set the flag statically in the superblock but tunefs man page knows nothing at all about ACL. So what do I need to do to get ACLs to work? Also, I was wondering when to use ugidfw (more exotic stuff, I presume) and when just basic ACLs. I think the whole ACL stuff could use some more docs, anyway. For most users, this could be the single most visible change to the system (SMPng etc are mostly under the hood so that's not as obvious to most). I'd appreciate any comments or pointers on this issue. TIA & regards, Gabriel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
