In a word, no. I can't blame anyone for suspecting that there's yet another hidden flag somewhere, given our track record, but there's nothing hidden on this one, there's just no code to implement O_NOFOLLOW. This isn't Posix, and we just never put it in. This would be a reasonable thing to have, so if you feel strongly enough about it to open an RFE, go for it. yuri Inactive hide details for "Knister, Aaron S.

Is there some hidden support for gpfs_putacl that will cause it to not deteference symbolic links? Something like the O_NOFOLLOW flag used elsewhere in linux?
