--- Comment #12 from Patrick Tinley
From my reading of the documentation the term "access ACL" is differentiated from "default ACL" as outlined on this page. http://www.novell.com/de-de/documentation/opensuse102/?page=/en-us/documenta...
This makes me understand that the word "access" is required when referring to "The user and group access permissions for all kinds of file system objects" as opposed to Default ACLs, which "can only be applied to directories". I see in the Knowledge Base that the term access ACL is used: "Fixes a long standing bug in acl_get_file() for default ACLs. Default ACLs bigger than the access ACL of the same file could not be retrieved; this is very unusual." http://support.novell.com/techcenter/psdb/c6817cc1dc208b6e232dcb886afc8912.h... 2. Perhaps there is a case for removing the English occurrence and the parentheses around "Zugriffs-ACLs" in this type of sentence: ACLs Zugriff Die Zugriffsberechtigungen für Benutzer und Gruppen auf beliebige Dateisystemobjekte (Dateien und Verzeichnisse) werden über Access ACLs (Zugriffs-ACLs) festgelegt. See 6. below. 3. I have looked in the latest version of the Reference Guide and this content is not present. It seems to have moved to section 10.3 of the Security Guide. http://www.novell.com/documentation/opensuse112/book_security/?page=/documen... 4. It seems sometimes "access" can be used as a verb. e.g. "With getfacl and setfacl on the command line, you can access ACLs." 5. I have searched the English openSUSE 11.2 Security Guide[1] and found 10 occurrences of "access ACL" and "Access ACL". In my opinion the term "access" is required in all cases to differentiate between Default ACLs and in one case because it is a verb. [1] http://www.novell.com/documentation/opensuse112/pdfdoc/book_security/book_se... 6. It appears that the Security Guide for openSUSE 11.2 has not been localised into German. I await clarification from the author or proofreader on whether any action needs to be taken on the TMs. regards, Patrick -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
