Are RACF rules governing UNIX files defined in terms of pathnames?
What happens if a multiply linked file has names matching conflicting
rules?
o if the rules exist prior to the names?
o If the names exist prior to the rules?

If RACF controls entire filesystems, no problem exists.

Can you elaborate?
My vision:
Single name - no issue.
Hard link - file security attributes (rwx, ACL) are tied to a file, not link. Symlink - can point even to non-existing file. Real (target) file attributes are considered. Directory (path) - I haven't check it, but IMHO it depends, that mean the directory attributes are checked. So it it possible to delete file, which seems to be protected against it. "Seems to be" - another path to another name allows delete.
