chacl problem

Ngoh Chean Siung — Tue, 01 Feb 2005 21:48:47 GMT

Hi,

Under /dev/rmt,

crw-rw-r-- 2 bin bin 205 0x030000 Feb 1 17:03 1m
crw-rw-r-- 2 bin bin 212 0x013000 Jan 24 11:03 0m

By default, these file permission is 666 but due to auditor advise already changed to 664.

Now I want to use ACL to grant access right to login id which is informix.

Below is the error message during modification:

# chacl 'bin.%,rw-' '%.bin,rw-' 'informix.%,rw-' '%.%,r--' 1m
chacl: invalid ACL: invalid group name in ACL entry: "bin.%"

Pls advise.

regards.

hi,

i think you have to give in the following format

chacl "bin.%=rw-" "%.bin=rw-" "informix.%=rw-" "%.%=r--" 1m

or try it with sigle quotes.

regds,

If memory serves correctly, ACL's are only supported on some types of filesystem? Are you that you have the correct type?
