The user and group i dont belong to. however there is an ACL on that directory which has desind - rwx

so should'nd i be able to change the permissions ? i understand that home directories should not be 777, i am just trying to understand the behavior when i have an ACL.

Here there is an ACL

Code:
desind@test:~#> hdfs dfs -getfacl /adhoc/desind
# file: /adhoc/desind
# owner: hdfs
# group: supergroup
user::rwx
user:desind:rwx
group::---
mask::rwx
other::---

That doesn't let you change the permissions, no. 'r' allows you to list the directory, 'w' allows you to create and delete files in it, and 'x' allows you to cd to that folder.
