I just did a quick google search. Since I don't know how archlinux
handles logins and security, I cannot offer lots of help at this point.
If you use systemd, then systemd can be used to set the ACLs, but since
I don't use systemd, I don't know much about it. Perhaps it's enough to
just set the group ACLs and no user ACLs, so you could just delete the
line starting with TEST.
