acl

README

go-acl

Golang POSIX.1e ACL bindings. Essentially bindings to /usr/include/sys/acl.h

notes

mac os x

Mac OS X does not seem to support basic POSIX1.e ACLs. They do provide the POSIX API for NFSv4 ACLs. It would be nice for this package to also support NFSv4 ACLs.

freebsd

By default, FreeBSD does not enable POSIX1.e ACLs on the root partition. To enable them, reboot into single-user mode and execute:

$ tunefs -a enable
$ reboot

info

The IEEE POSIX.1e specification describes five security extensions to the base POSIX.1 API: Access Control Lists (ACLs), Auditing, Capabilities, Mandatory Access Control, and Information Flow Labels. The specificaiton was abandoned before finalization, however most UNIX-like operating systems have some form of ACL implementation.

Overview

Package acl provides an interface to Posix.1e Access Control Lists as well as additional ACL implementations (NFS).
