I think part of my problem may have been the "inherit_only" flag which is described as, "Inherit the ACL from the parent directory but applies only to newly created files or subdirectories and not the directory itself. This flag requires the file_inherit flag, the dir_inherit flag or both to indicate what to inherit"
...but the moment I applied that to a directory, it immediately took the permissions from the parent directory of the parent, whereas I was only expecting it to apply to other files and sub-directories that were created below it, later on. I might be making progress in my understanding of where I'm going wrong, but it is only one step forward. _______________________________________________ openindiana-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://openindiana.org/mailman/listinfo/openindiana-discuss
