acl_set_permset - Sets permissions in a given ACL entry
LIBRARY
Security Library (libpacl.a)
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/acl.h>
int acl_set_permset( acl_entry_t entry_d; acl_permset_t permset_d);
PARAMETERS
Specifies the descriptor of the working storage internal representation of an ACL entry. Points to a working storage internal representa-
tion of file permission bits.
DESCRIPTION
NOTE: This function is based on Draft 13 of the POSIX P1003.6 standard.
Given a pointer to an ACL entry, the acl_set_permset() function sets the permissions. Any permissions in the ACL entry before the call to
acl_set_permset() are replaced with the new set of permissions.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the acl_set_permset() function returns a value of 0 (zero). Otherwise, a value of -1 is returned, and errno is
set to indicate the error.
ERRORS
If the following conditions occur, the acl_set_permset() function sets errno to the corresponding value: The entry_d parameter does not
refer to a valid ACL entry. The permset_d parameter does not contain valid file permission bits.

I have seen some misinformation regarding Unix file permissions. I will try to set the record straight. Take a look at this example of some output from ls:

Suppose I have a main() function with only one malloc statement allocating say some 1 gb memory. Also say my system has 1 gb of ram.
main()

malloc(1gb)
return(0)
}
The program above exits without freeing the memory.
In this case will the 1 gb of heap memory be returned... (9 Replies)
I see lot of ad-hoc shell scripts in our servers which don't have a shebang at the beginning .
Does this mean that it will run on any shell ?
