acls

This module provides a graphical interface to managing the file system Access Control Lists (or ACLs) that provide fine-grained control over access to file system objects.

The acls.py script. requires GTK.

You can directly run ./acls.py or fsacls.

For ACLs to be effective,

• the kernel must be recompiled with the ACL patch, unless it is included in the distribution
• the file system must support ACLs (ext3, reiserfs, xfs, ...) and be mounted with the proper options
• the getfacl and setfacl utilities must be available
