DESCRIPTION

acltool is a tool to manipulate NFSv4 & ZFS ACLs in various ways. POSIX.1e ACLs is not supported as of this time.

ABBREVIATIONS

All actions or long options may be abbreviated freely as long as they can be uniqely identfied. For example edit-access may be abbreviated to edac, ed-ac, edit-acc or edit and many other variants. Similarly --no-update may (for example) be abbreviated to --no-up or --nu.

OPTIONS

-h | --help: Display usage information.
-v | --verbose: Increase verbosity
-n | --no-update: No-update mode.
-s | --sort: Enable Sort ACL mode.
-m | --merge: Enable Merge ACL mode.
-r | --recurse: Recurse thru directory tree.
-d <n> | --depth=<n>: Limit recursion depth.
-S <s> | --style=<S>: Set ACL print style.
-p | --print: Increase Print ACL mode.
-n | --no-update: Never modify ACLs on disk.
-N | --no-prefix: Do not print path prefix when listing matching ACL entries.
-e <cr> | --exec=<cr>: Add a semicolon-separated list of <change-requests> to be applied to ACLs (only for edit-access)
-f <file> | --file=<file>: Read a semicolon or line-separated list of <change-requests> from a file to be applied to ACLs (only for edit-access)

ACTIONS

help: Display usage information about all actions, or more detailed information about a specific one.
list-access (lac): List ACLs
set-access (sac): Set ACLs
edit-access (edac): Modify ACLs
touch-access (tac): Modify ACLs
get-access (gac): Get ACLs into variables in brief text format.
change-directory (cd): Change current directory

INTERACTIVE MODE

Interactive Mode is entered if you do not specify an action on the command line. In this mode tab-completion works for commands and common long options (not action-specific options). Environment variables may be accessed using ${name}.

ALTERNATIVE PROGRAM NAMES

You may make symbolic links to acltool in order to use actions directly. For example "ln -s acltool lac" makes it possible to use "lac" as a shortcut to "acltool lac" from a Shell.
