Group permissions are NO LONGER related to group. It’s a MASK!
# setfacl -R -m u:apache:rwx html/
# getfacl html/
# file: html/
# owner: root
# group: root
user::rwx
user:alphausr:rwx
user:caesar:rwx
group::r-x
mask::rwx
other::r-x
To remove ACL as this is a temporary user and reinstate alphausr;
cd /var/www/; setfacl -R -b html/; setfacl -R -m u:alphausr:rwx html/
DEFAULT ACL
# setfacl -m d:u:apache:rwx html/
BACKUP
# getfacl -R /var/www/html/ > /root/html.perm
RESTORE (need to be in / )
# cd /
# setfacl –restore=/root/html.perm
