NFS4_GETFACL(1)

NAME
nfs4_getfacl - get NFSv4 file/directory access control lists

SYNOPSIS
nfs4_getfacl [-HR] file ...

DESCRIPTION
nfs4_getfacl will display the NFSv4 Access Control List (ACL) for the files given as arguments, provided they are on mounted NFSv4 filesystems which support ACLs.

If the -H/--more-help flag is specified, nfs4_getfacl will print some information about NFSv4 ACLs and the fields used in ACEs.

If the -R/--recursive flag is specified, nfs4_getfacl will list the NFSv4 ACLs of all files and directories recursively.

If the -c/--omit-header flag is specified, nfs4_getfacl will not display the comment header (Do not print filename).

If the --dacl flag is specified, nfs4_getfacl will retrieve the dacl. This functionality is only available if the server supports NFSv4 minor version 1 or newer.

If the --sacl flag is specified, nfs4_getfacl will retrieve the sacl. This functionality is only available if the server supports NFSv4 minor version 1 or newer.

The output format for an NFSv4 file ACL, e.g., is:

    # file: /somedir
    A::OWNER@:rwatTnNcCy
    A::alice@nfsdomain.org:rxtncy
    A::bob@nfsdomain.org:rwadtTnNcCy
    A:g:GROUP@:rtncy
    D:g:GROUP@:waxTC
    A::EVERYONE@:rtncy
    D::EVERYONE@:waxTC

In the example output above, the user `alice@nfsdomain.org' has the equivalent of "read" and "execute" permissions, `bob@nfsdomain.org' has "read" and "write", and both `GROUP@' and `EVERYONE@' have "read".

The ACL listings of multiple files are separated by blank lines.

Refer to the nfs4_acl(5) manpage for detailed information about NFSv4 ACL terminology and syntax.
