It's perhaps more understandable when you realize that AFS was developed at an academic institution with a regular influx of new students, and one of the most common things for people unfamiliar with AFS to do is remove themselves from the ACLs of their own home directories. This decision lets them add themselves back without having to contact an AFS administrator if they own their home directories. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
