Hey all, I've recently installed FreeBSD 5.0-DP2 to get myself familiar with the upcoming ACLs present in -CURRENT before the release itself. I've setup a test machine with one 45gb ide drive with one slice and two partitions (/ and swap) and installed FreeBSD on it. dumpfs / shows that root is UFS2, and from reading /usr/src/sys/ufs/ufs/README.acls, I don't need to do the extattrctl initattr commands since ufs2 supports EA/ACLs natively. Additionally, I booted to single user mode and enabled ACLS on / by doing a tunefs -a enable /dev/ad0s1a. I proceeded to try getfacl and setfacl. getfacl returned the default settings (just stat() in ACL form according to Robert Watson), however, no matter what I tried all I could get with setfacl -m g:mail:rwx testfile was: setfacl: acl_get_file() failed: Operation not supported I thought perhaps the tunefs on the ro mount of / did not take. So instead I used the mount time flag in fstab: /dev/ad0s1a / ufs rw,acls 1 1 I rebooted, and tried again. Yet I still get the same error message with setfacl. At this point I'm stuck. Is it because I only have / and not / and /usr? Does UFS2 with EA/ACLs not work on boot partitions? Or did I misunderstand something when trying to setup ACLs in -CURRENT? Any advice right now would be welcomed. Thanks. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
