[opensuse] What does the 11th file permission bit (+) mean? "-rwxrwx---+"
Listmates, Bewildered again. I have run across a file permission setting I am not familiar with. I found it when my backup through an error. I can't for the life of me figure out how one of my legal assistant set this funky permission from a windows machine while accessing a samba share. the files in interest are: -rwxrwx---+ 1 cyndy ochiltree 21504 2008-10-28 16:48 AUTHORIZATION - employment.doc* -rwxrwx---+ 1 cyndy ochiltree 12804 2008-10-28 16:48 AUTHORIZATION - employment.pdf* drwxrwx---+ 2 cyndy ochiltree 4096 2008-10-29 16:56 Gregg, Joy/ -rwxrwx---+ 1 cyndy ochiltree 44544 2008-10-28 16:32 POA - BG Contingency New.doc* -rwxrwx---+ 1 cyndy ochiltree 48309 2008-10-28 16:31 POA - BG Contingency New.pdf* drwxrwx---+ 2 cyndy ochiltree 4096 2008-10-29 16:51 Roper, Buddy/ What in the world does the "+" at the end of the permissions mean? -- David C.

What in the world does the "+" at the end of the permissions mean?
These are files which have set additional ACLs. (man 5 acl) For example use getfacl to list them. Wolfgang -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

OK, Found it, but this is bizarre! In 8 years of running samba, in stand-alone mode, I have never had this occur before. Now, somehow from WinXP, my legal assistant was able to set something (not intentionally mind you) that I hadn't seen before. (perhaps she is a closet hacker) I found the setfacl --remove-all command that gets rid of this, but I'm still left wondering WTF happened? Of well, off to the samba list to see if I can stop it from ever occurring again... Thanks! -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.

That's usually intentional. One reason why ACLs were introduced is for Samba usage to allow what Windows allows by setting per user access lists to your samba shared files. You can for example turn ACL support off on Linux filesystem level by using "noacl" as mount option.

Thank you Wolfgang, that was exactly what I was looking for. I'll find out tomorrow that in the world she did to set the ACL. Probably some new word processing feature... -- David C.
