-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.+Normal file permissions on Linux (and UNIX) consist of 3 categories: the file user (owner), the group the file belongs to, and all others.

 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. Luckily, there is now a working graphical user interface for the NFS4 ACLs, called ''nfs4-acl-editor''.

 +===== 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
