I have tried to use Posix ACLs in FC2 but I ever get "operation not supported". I just cut and paste examples from the manpages (after changing names to protect the innocent) but to no avail. I checked what I was doing with the --test option and the setfacl command didn't complain (so it wasn't a syntactic error). With an strace I can see that it is the kernel who is answering "ENOTSUPPORTED" to setfacl. It is the vanilla kernel from FC2 (who is supposed to be compiled with Posix ACLs) and the filesystem is ext3 (who is supposed to have been compiled with ACL support). It could be that the partition hasn't been formatted with ACL support (the formatting was made by the installer) but I haven't seen any option in mkfs.ext3 or tune2fs for ACL support. BTW I have the same problem when trying to set attributes: operation not supported. JFM
