Hi Verde

I thought of the same thing, there's no reason giving fancy restriction to the user unless he's removed from group 0, and ACL does have mysterious ways working with permissions and maskings

If I were to use ACLs, say to allow user ZODCIFUSR to have read only access for directory and files under /usr/sap, how would the command be? Is this correct?

Code:

setfacl -m d u:ZODCIFUSR /usr/sap

Also I did a bit of Googling and it says that the permissions and ownerships are inherited; even after using mv or cp -p command. Is this true?
