In this case, I assume, MAC_ stands for "mandatory access control", which is an old security nomenclature where permissions are represented by "security labels" on every file, task, etc.. The TrustedBSD project, from which Darwin got its MAC framework, might have some documentation on what's going on with vnode security labels here. Why OSX would behave differently when booting from ZFS instead of HFS, though, I have no idea. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
