However, that's still far from perfect, so, as a temporary + workaround, chmod now checks if secondary groups and users in the ACL + have more permissions than the primary group. If so, the permissions + of the secondary users and groups will be reduced according to the mask + given by the new primary group permissions. I.e, chmod 600 will remove + all permissions from the primary group as well as all secondary user and + group entries in the ACL. + Bug Fixes --------- |
