 ===== Permissions and groups =====
-Normal file permissions on Linux (and UNIX) consist of 3 categories: the file user (owner), the group the file belongs to, and all others. For each of these categories, the owner can set a combination of read (r), write(w) and execute (x) permissions.

 [Additionally, there are a couple of special permissions (setuid, setgid, sticky) which are not covered here]

   nfs4_setfacl -a 'A:fd:sfinx@strw.leidenuniv.nl:rwaDxtTcCy' /net/eendracht/data1/acl_test
 This will give the user 'sfinx' approximately the same permissions as the owner of the directory (check with ''nfs4_getfacl'' to verify).
+===== New: nfs4-acl-editor =====
+Luckily, there is now a working graphical user interface for the NFS4 ACLs, called ''nfs4-acl-editor''. Unfortunately, it is not (yet) integrated into the file manager, so one has to run the command separately, and open the file or directory to work on from the ''file'' menu.
+===== Copying NFS4 ACls =====
+If you have a working ACl setup on one directory, and you want to duplicate that on another, use a command like this:
+  nfs4_getfacl /disks/web1/website1| nfs4_setfacl -R -S - /disks/web2/website2
+====== Devices without ACL support ======
+Unfortunately, not all devices support these ACLs (yet). It is currently not possible to use them on:
+  * /disks/paradata
+  * /disks/vdesk/data2
