You mean the vast majority of applications in existance ;)? Other than chmod(1) in Solaris, and nfs4_(get|set)_facl in Linux, can you name off the top of your head *any* other applications that grok ZFS/NFSv4 ACLs (as opposed to blindly chmod'ing stuff and breaking your access control <sigh>)? (and GUI front ends to chmod/(get_set)_facl don't count :) ). I'm still waiting for the bug in Solaris chgrp that breaks ACLs to get fixed; I reported that last year sometime. And *that's* a core component of the Solaris OS itself; what's the chance of a timely response from a 3rd party vendor whose application doesn't play nicely with ACLs? <broken record> If only there was some way to keep applications from screwing up your ACLs with inappropriate uses of chmod... </broken record> -- Paul B.
