setfacl -x doesn't shows it removed the ACL
Hi,
My directory had ACL for user XYZ and I wanted to removethe ACL's X had.
So, I issued the command
after removing when i list the files, it still shows with (+) i.e it still contain ACL(??)

drwxr-xr-x+ 25 inuser USR 4.0K Jul 29 08:28 TgtFiles


also, the getfacl for the above dir, gives
# file: TgtFiles
# owner: inuser
# group: USR
user::rwx
group::r-x
mask::r-x
other::r-x

Though it removes the ACL , when I list the dir / file, it shows (+) .


Any reasons ?

thanks

acl_create_entry

acl_create_entry(3)					     Library Functions Manual					       acl_create_entry(3)

NAME

       acl_create_entry - Create a new ACL entry

LIBRARY

       Security Library (libpacl.a)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/acl.h>
       acl_entry_t acl_create_entry(	  acl_t *acl_p);

PARAMETERS

       Points to the working storage internal representation ACL to create the new entry in.

DESCRIPTION

       NOTE:  This function is based on Draft 13 of the POSIX P1003.6 standard.

       The acl_create_entry() function creates a new ACL entry in the ACL pointed to by the acl_p argument.  If there is insufficient space in the
       ACL for creating a new entry, then additional memory is allocated.

       The components of the new ACL entry are initialized as follows: The ACL tag type component does not contain a possible ACL tag type The tag
       qualifier component does not refer to any possible user ID or group ID The set of permissions does not have any permissions specified.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon  successful  completion,  the  acl_create_entry()  function  returns  the descriptor for the new entry.  Otherwise, a value of NULL is
       returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.

ERRORS

       If any of the following conditions occur, the acl_create_entry() function sets errno to the corresponding value: The  acl_p  argument  does
       not refer to a valid ACL.  The new ACL entry requires more memory than the system is able to provide.
