Hi, I have used them several times in different environments. If you need them, they are the only way...
Caveat: I suggest anyone using them should be very familiar with managing complex groups, the use of permissions, sticky bits etc. --One painful example I heard of recently was a site containing thousands of ACLs on files that were already covered by the enclosing directory. The number of ACLs & inodes will be the only real limit to look at.. ie: if you have permissions granted by a directly, the files inside only need to have world access ( for w r or x what ever you need ) this can save lots of over head Nota bene, compatibility with other ACL is a bit of a pain, if you are sharing with windows you may look at CIFS instead. NFS was a pain, but I think those bugs are mostly fixed now. Gluck! Hro On 2011-11-29, at 8:02 PM, Patricia Campbell wrote: > Does anyone out there use them ?
