Hi Achenle,

Thanks for your email.

I have tried this and it is not changing the permissions now.. but that would be expected if chmod is "interfered" like that?
What vim does is take a copy, work on tha tcopy, then copy that file back and invoke chmod to preserve permissions, which in turns overwrites the ACLs.

I have attaced the dtrace output too.

What's odd is, if I run it with "nobackup", it creates the swap file as well, but this time it preserves the acls...

Code:
1715/1:          0.0733 chmod(".1.swp", 0644)                           = 0
1715/1:          2.7204 rename("1", "1~")                               = 0
1715/1:          2.7227 chmod("1", 0100644)                             = 0
1715/1:          2.7284 rename("/root/.viminfo.tmp", "/root/.viminfo")  = 0

Cheers.

NAME
chmod - change mode SYNOPSIS
chmod mode file ... DESCRIPTION
The mode of each named file is changed according to mode, which may be absolute or symbolic. An absolute mode is an octal number con- structed from the OR of the following modes: 4000 set user ID on execution 2000 set group ID on execution 1000 sticky bit, see chmod(2) 0400 read by owner 0200 write by owner 0100 execute (search in directory) by owner 0070 read, write, execute (search) by group 0007 read, write, execute (search) by others A symbolic mode has the form: [who] op permission [op permission] ... The who part is a combination of the letters u (for user's permissions), g (group) and o (other). The letter a stands for ugo. If who is omitted, the default is a but the setting of the file creation mask (see umask(2)) is taken into account. Op can be + to add permission to the file's mode, - to take away permission and = to assign permission absolutely (all other bits will be reset). Permission is any combination of the letters r (read), w (write), x (execute), s (set owner or group id) and t (save text - sticky). Let- ters u, g or o indicate that permission is to be taken from the current mode. Omitting permission is only useful with = to take away all permissions. The first example denies write permission to others, the second makes a file executable: chmod o-w file chmod +x file Multiple symbolic modes separated by commas may be given. Operations are performed in the order specified. The letter s is only useful with u or g. Only the owner of a file (or the super-user) may change its mode. SEE ALSO
