I am trying to create an entry for '/' (or '.' w/me sitting in '/') where the default entries are the same as the file entries.
Ooooo ... not sure _I'd_ mess what / on a Windows system!
I noticed the example give in the manpage for copying entries: The special filename "-" indicates reading from stdin. Note that you can use this with getfacl and setfacl to copy ACLs from one file to another: $ getfacl source_file | setfacl -f - target_file so tried doing: getfacl . | setfacl -d - .
I have no problem doing: mkdir temp getfacl . | setfacl -f - temp getfacl temp | setfacl -f . getfacl / | setfacl -f . I didn't want to try setting things on /, but you might: cd / mkdir foo getfacl foo | setfacl -f - . But I am not sure what foo would have as its permission, i.e., whether they are what you want.
