A user's rights on a directory are effectively moot unless s/he has "l" permissions on every ancestor directory (up to the volume root). So you could say that the "transitive" acl of a directory is its acl minus permissions which cannot currently be exercised by virtue of the acls on its ancestors. I'm interested in a simple utility to print out this sort of effective acl. For bonus points, query the pts database and factor in group membership (for example, a group you belong to has "l" on parent and you personally have "l" on the directory itself). Has anybody written this already, or should I take a crack at it?
You can probably use "ws" as a basis. See ws.c in my homedir in the andrew cell.
