>From an ACL perspective, yes. "InheritOnly" indicates that this entry
does not grant any permissions on the directory. It is only copied
as an entry to new files or subdirectories created in this directory.
So if this is the only ACL entry, there are indeed no permissions on
this directory.

You can remove the "InheritOnly" bit, then this would also grant
permission on the directory. Or you can add another ACL entry that
grants permissions on the directory.


I may have not been clear enough, but that ACE has only been added to the 
previous 3 ACEs, so the complete one for the directory is the following:

#NFSv4 ACL
#owner:root
#group:p15875
special:owner@:rwxc:allow
 (X)READ/LIST (X)WRITE/CREATE (X)APPEND/MKDIR (X)SYNCHRONIZE (X)READ_ACL  
(X)READ_ATTR  (X)READ_NAMED
 (-)DELETE    (X)DELETE_CHILD (X)CHOWN        (X)EXEC/SEARCH (X)WRITE_ACL 
(X)WRITE_ATTR (X)WRITE_NAMED

special:group@:rwx-:allow
 (X)READ/LIST (X)WRITE/CREATE (X)APPEND/MKDIR (X)SYNCHRONIZE (X)READ_ACL  
(X)READ_ATTR  (X)READ_NAMED
 (-)DELETE    (X)DELETE_CHILD (X)CHOWN        (X)EXEC/SEARCH (X)WRITE_ACL 
(X)WRITE_ATTR (X)WRITE_NAMED

special:everyone@:----:allow
 (-)READ/LIST (-)WRITE/CREATE (-)APPEND/MKDIR (X)SYNCHRONIZE (X)READ_ACL  
(X)READ_ATTR  (X)READ_NAMED
 (-)DELETE    (-)DELETE_CHILD (-)CHOWN        (-)EXEC/SEARCH (-)WRITE_ACL 
(-)WRITE_ATTR (-)WRITE_NAMED

special:owner@:rwx-:allow:DirInherit:InheritOnly
 (X)READ/LIST (X)WRITE/CREATE (X)APPEND/MKDIR (X)SYNCHRONIZE (X)READ_ACL  
(X)READ_ATTR  (X)READ_NAMED
 (-)DELETE    (X)DELETE_CHILD (X)CHOWN        (X)EXEC/SEARCH (X)WRITE_ACL 
(X)WRITE_ATTR (X)WRITE_NAMED

So I would expect that the first 3 would still produce a 644 mode on the file. 
Am I wrong?
Cheers,
Ivano
