in the ACL. I don't know if the OpenAFS client support this though. At
least an OpenAFS client from 2002 running on Solaris give a permission
denied trying to write to a owned file. A current Arla doesn't.

If you don't have 'w' access on a directory then even if you own a
file the fileserver should deny the write() request.

It's not that simple. If you have 'i' access, then, as far as the server is concerned, you _can_ write to files whose owner matches your pts id (you might even be able to read from them - I don't remember the details). The openafs client doesn't let you open such files, but that is entirely client-side enforcement.
