setfacl(1)

Name

getfacl, setfacl - display or modify the Access Control List (ACL) for files

Description

In Oracle Solaris 11.3 and earlier releases, the getfacl and setfacl commands were used to view and change POSIX-draft Access Control Lists (ACLs) on UFS filesystems.

These commands are no longer included in Oracle Solaris 11.4 and later releases. Instead of getfacl, you can use the –v or –V options to the ls(1) command to list an ACL. Instead of setfacl, you can use the –A option to the chmod(1) command to change an ACL.

Unlike getfacl and setfacl, ls and chmod work with all supported ACL types and file systems in Oracle Solaris.
