Hello, I have a little problem concerning the persistance of Access Control Lists (ACL) on a ReiserFS filesystem: Whenever I reboot the machine, they vanish partially. I have my home dir /home/jim set to mode 700, so noone else can read it. But apache needs to be able to walk through it to my public_html directory. So I've set
group:www-data:--x mask::--x on my home directory. This works like a charm until the next reboot. After the reboot the mask is set to 000 again, but the line for "group:www-data" still exists. host:/home# getfacl jim # file: jim # owner: jim # group: users user::rwx group::--- group:www-data:--x #effective:--- mask::--- other::--- Why can that be? The system is Debian Sarge with a vanilla kernel 2.6.11.8. The filesystems show up in the mount output as /dev/mapper/storage-root on / type reiserfs (rw,acl) /dev/mapper/storage-home on /home type reiserfs (rw,noatime,nodiratime,acl) Regards, Jim
