Depends... on 8.0 with the getfacl and setfacl programs, it's extremely easy. The output of getfacl is suitable as input to setfacl, and can be used to sync permissions: (cd /path/dir1 && getfacl *) | (cd /path/dir2 && setfacl -S -) or: (cd /path/dir1 && getfacl *) | (cd /path/dir2 && setfacl --restore=-) Forgive me for not testing the above; if the first doesn't work, the second should. If you don't have getfacl and setfacl, it'd require a small amount of scripting to accomplish using chmod and chown. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@;redhat.com?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
