Hi, i found out that the X-permission doesn't work recursive with setfacl in acl-2.2.13-r2. X means: execute only if the file is a directory or already has execute permission for some user An Example: asterix dir # getfacl file # file: file # owner: root # group: root user::rw- group::r-- other::r-- asterix dir # setfacl -Rm u:user:r-X . asterix dir # getfacl file # file: file # owner: root # group: root user::rw- user:user:r-x group::r-- mask::r-x other::r-- Why does this file now have execute permissions?? The X flag should not change the exexute permissions of this file, because its neither a directory nor did it have the execute permission. If I do "setfacl -m u:user:r-X file" the X flag works correct and the file has no execute permissions after that. I need to change a lot of permissions recursivly, so this bug realy troubling. Thanks, bye, b52 Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. compare "setfacl -m u:user:r-X file" and "setfacl -Rm u:user:r-X ." 2. 3.
