ok, the top directory of my Palemoon install just below the profiles dir has the problem from tar: tar: default.nlaw-32: Warning: Cannot acl_to_text: Invalid argument Your script (thank you very much!), shows: > lstp default.nlaw-32 drwxrwx---+ 1 Bliss\law Bliss\lawgroup 0 Mar 12 08:30 default.nlaw-32 # file: default.nlaw-32 # owner: Bliss\law # group: Bliss\lawgroup user::rwx group::rwx group:TrustedInstaller:rwx group:SYSTEM:rwx group:Bliss\Domain Admins:rwx group:Administrators:rwx group:lawgroup:rwx mask::rwx other::--- getfacl: default.nlaw-32: Invalid argument default.nlaw-32 NULL SID:(DENY)(Rc,S,REA,WEA,X,DC) Bliss\law:(F) BLISS\lawgroup:(RX,W,DC) NT SERVICE\TrustedInstaller:(RX,W,DC) NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM:(RX,W,DC) BLISS\Domain Admins:(RX,W,DC) BUILTIN\Administrators:(RX,W,DC) Athenae\lawgroup:(RX,W,DC) Everyone:(Rc,S,RA) Mandatory Label\High Mandatory Level:(I)(OI)(CI)(NW) Successfully processed 1 files; Failed processing 0 files ------ Does that give any insight into the problem? > > Just because Explorer does not understand those ACLs' order does not mean they > are invalid or wrong: just not set via the Explorer interface using its simple > approach - only Explorer is confused; that's why Explorer has an Advanced > security pane - to set stuff Explorer can't. > --- ??? Um...I don't think I ever use it's simple interface -- it bothers me because it isn't literal enough (hides too much detail). Are we doing posix acls or sun acls? I thought at one point they were sun? > Don't let Explorer cleanup, fix, or reorder those ACLs to avoid grief! > Explorer dislikes a lot of what I work with, so I don't use Explorer much: > pcmanfm works for me. > It doesn't -- its the advanced panel that I use for resetting. The problem is that it isn't just Explorer. After a reinstall, I had odd permissions in several places, so I got "can't write" errors when I tried to use a music player that had its database in roaming profile. I found a few oddities, like ----rwxr-x on a few directories and files. Resetting them in cygwin didn't fix the problem -- thus I used the advanced dialog in explorer. The errors were that it couldn't write to various databases. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
