removing setacl

[Mel Burslan]

I thought the group was optional but obviously not. Then run this:

chacl -d 'john.*rw-' tcl8.4.16-src.tar

if this does not work, please post the error message again. Dealing with ACLs is no fun

chacl is more trouble than I'd like to deal with on a Friday.

you can yank all rights of the user john, using this command

setacl -d user:john

You mean where it says this?:

[...]
For the -d option, acl_entries are one or
more comma separated ACL entries without
permissions, [...]

Note: "without permissions". I know nothing,
but ":rwx" looks to me like permissions.
