nfs4_getfacl

Synopsis

nfs4_getfacl [-HR] file ...

Description

nfs4_getfacl will display the NFSv4 Access Control List (ACL) for the files given as arguments, provided they are on mounted NFSv4 filesystems which support ACLs.

If the -H/--more-help flag is specified, nfs4_getfacl will print some information about NFSv4 ACLs and the fields used in ACEs.

If the -R/--recursive flag is specified, nfs4_getfacl will list the NFSv4 ACLs of all files and directories recursively.

The output format for an NFSv4 file ACL, e.g., is:

# file: /somedir
A::OWNER@:rwatTnNcCy
A::alice@nfsdomain.org:rxtncy
A::bob@nfsdomain.org:rwadtTnNcCy
A:g:GROUP@:rtncy
D:g:GROUP@:waxTC
A::EVERYONE@:rtncy
D::EVERYONE@:waxTC

In the example output above, the user `alice@nfsdomain.org' has the equivalent of "read" and "execute" permissions, `bob@nfsdomain.org' has "read" and  "write", and both `GROUP@' and `EVERYONE@' have "read".

The ACL listings of multiple files are separated by blank lines.

Refer to the nfs4_acl(5) manpage for detailed information about NFSv4 ACL terminology and syntax.
