Hello, since I know now how to solve the problem some people (like me) had with acls on a _debian woody_, her a hint I got from the people at debian: > You're using a buggy version of libacl -- you have to have libacl1 > 2.0.10-1 or better installed to get properly linked binaries. If you upgrade your libacl package to one in the unstable or testing, it will work - I got a debian package _with_ acl support now. The version I installed is 2.0.15-1. HTH GTi
