Can you use setfacl -b <dir> option to clear all ACL entries ?
This will leave only regular permissions.
Hope that helps

7. HP-UX
Hello,
I try to find what year HP-UX got support for ACL (Access Control List)? I know that HP-UX was the first Unix with ACL support, but it is very hard to find the information on when that occured.
So anyone here know when that did happen?
Any answers are appreciated,

acl_set_file
acl_set_file(3) Library Functions Manual acl_set_file(3)
NAME
acl_set_file - Sets the ACL on the file or directory designated by the path name
LIBRARY
Security Library (libpacl.a)
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/acl.h>
int acl_set_file( char *path_p; acl_type_t type_d; acl_t acl_d);
PARAMETERS
The pathname of the file or directory to set the ACL on. Designates the type of ACL to set: ACL_TYPE_ACCESS, ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT, or
ACL_TYPE_DEFAULT_DIR. Working storage internal representation of the ACL that is being set.
DESCRIPTION
NOTE: This function is based on Draft 13 of the POSIX P1003.6 standard.
Given a path name to a file or directory, the acl_set_file() function sets the designated ACL. The type of ACL being set is determined by
the type_d parameter. If acl_d is NULL, then the designated ACL is removed from the designated file or directory. The entry pointer used
by the acl_get_entry() function becomes undefined after a call to the acl_set_file() function.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the acl_set_file() function returns a value of 0 (zero). Otherwise, a value of -1 is returned and errno is set
to indicate the error.
ERRORS
If any of the following conditions occur, the acl_set_file() function sets errno to the corresponding value:
The required access to the file was denied. The named file or directory does not exist. The argument acl_d does not contain a valid ACL.
Argument type_d does not contain a valid ACL type. The pathname is longer than allowed. The directory or file system that would contain
the new ACL cannot be extended or the file system is out of file allocation resources. The argument type_d indicates a default ACL, and
path_p does not point to a directory. The designated file or directory resides on a file system that does not support ACLs The process
does not have the appropriate permissions to perform the operation.
The setting and changing of ACLs have been disabled by the system administrator. The designated file or directory resides on a read-only
file system.
