From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20031114 Description of problem: I'm running RHES3 with kernel-2.4.21-4.0.1.EL.i686.rpm. ACLs are enabled for / (ext3 on software-RAID1) and /home is NFS exported. Some tests to see that ACLs work on the server: [bart@picard acltest]$ touch testfile [bart@picard acltest]$ mkdir testdir [bart@picard acltest]$ ls -l total 4 drwxrwxr-x 2 bart bart 4096 Dec 6 23:26 testdir -rw-rw-r-- 1 bart bart 0 Dec 6 23:26 testfile [bart@picard acltest]$ setfacl -m u:dummy:r test* [bart@picard acltest]$ ls -l total 12 drwxrwxr-x+ 2 bart bart 4096 Dec 6 23:26 testdir -rw-rw-r--+ 1 bart bart 0 Dec 6 23:26 testfile Now on the NFS client (Fedora Core 1 kernel-smp-2.4.22-1.2129.nptl.i686.rpm) I get some strange results: Before setfacl on the server: [bart@riker acltest]$ ls -l insgesamt 4 drwxrwxr-x 2 bart bart 4096 6. Dez 23:26 testdir -rw-rw-r-- 1 bart bart 0 6. Dez 23:26 testfile After setfacl on the server: [bart@riker acltest]$ ls -l insgesamt 8 drwxrwxr-x 2 bart bart 4096 6. Dez 23:26 testdir -rw-r--r-- 1 bart bart 0 6. Dez 23:26 testfile [bart@riker acltest]$ getfacl testfile # file: testfile # owner: bart # group: bart user::rw- group::r-- other::r-- As you can see the w-permission for group is not displayed anymore. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Follow the instructions seen in the description above. 2. 3. Additional info:
The problem still exists using the current errata kernels: RHES3: kernel-2.4.21-4.0.2.EL.i686.rpm FC1: kernel-smp-2.4.22-1.2140.nptl.i686.rpm
Does 'getfacl testfile' on the server show the correct output? It didn't for me, which could mean this is an ext3 issue not an nfs one...
The output from getfacl testfile on the server looks ok to me: [bart@picard acltest]$ getfacl testfile # file: testfile # owner: bart # group: bart user::rw- user:dummy:r-- group::rw- mask::rw- other::r--
