NAME

mfsfacl - MooseFS file access control lists (extended attributes) management tools

SYNOPSIS

mfsgetfacl [-?] [-adceEspn] OBJECT [OBJECT ...]

mfssetfacl [-?] [-bKknd] [{-s|-m|-x} ACL_SPEC] [{-S|-M|-X} ACL_FILE] OBJECT [OBJECT ...]

DESCRIPTION

These tools operate on object's access control list (ACL) value. ACL's in MooseFS are compatible with Linux, so in Linux you may use setfacl and getfacl commands.

mfsgetfacl prints current ACL value of given object(s).

mfssetfacl sets/changes/removes current ACL value of given object(s).

-a - display the file access control list only

ACL SPECIFICATION

For -S, -M and -X option the parameter ACL_FILE should be a path to a file containing ACL value specifications as described below (one definition per line, multiple lines possible, content after # sign is ignored, output from mfsgetfacl command is always a valid file content).

ACL_SPEC should be one of the following:

[d[efault]:][u[ser]:]uid[:perms]

[d[efault]:]g[roup]:gid[:perms]

[d[efault]:]m[ask][:][:perms]

[d[efault]:]o[ther][:][:perms]

d means work on default ACL values instead of access values. Next part indicates whether user's, group's or other's permissions or mask should be set. If that part is ommited and only identifier is provided, it is assumed to be user indentifier. If user or group is indicated, if there is no identifier, default user's or group's permissions are modified. Identifier can be a string or a number. Permissions can be in the form of letters, any subset of rwx or number. Zero, empty string or dash means no permissions for -s and -m. For -x, permissions must be ommited. Multiple specification can be supplied, divided by comma.
