On the other hand, we found out that one can apply "fs sa" on a

The latter behavior was always true. the change to the former is new in 1.4, i don't remember the rationale but it was discussed on the list.

Thank you for your answer.
I tried to look for the discussion on -info and -devel with some obvious keywords, but did not found it (I will try my luck again later). However, unless I missed something again, the files documenting "fs setacl" in openafs-1.4.{1,2}-doc.tar.gz always speak only about directory's owner (the three lines in my original post), which is confusing.


I'm not arguing your point. We should fix one or the other, though, I'm not sure which. I will try to find the discussion.
