Hi all! I''m searching for a GUI tool to set ZFS (NFSv4) ACLs. I found some nautilus add ons in the web but they don''t seen to work with nautilus shipped with OI. Any solution? Achim

Windows can certainly edit ZFS ACLs when they''re exposed to it over CIFS. ;-) Chris

Any solution?I''ve been looking for something like this for ages, but as far as I know none exists. It certainly seems like a logical idea. Then again, Solaris doesn''t have all that many desktop users so I guess the user base would be limited. Maybe they could integrate it with Ops Center somehow. _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss at opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss ---------- Learn more about Merchant Link at www.merchantlink.com.

At $WORK we have an Isilon that has these ACLs on OneFS, and we''ve found it easier to go in via Windows and CIFS and edit the ACLs than trying to use the CLI tools for some of the convoluted permissions we have to deal with (e.g., multiple research groups, with some users getting write access on top of the base read access that they''d normally have; add inheritance on top of that for newly created directories sub-trees, etc.). I think if you can SSH into a server with X11 forwarding enable and have the editor run on the system, with the GUI showing up on the admin''s desktop, then it''d be handy. Editing complicated ACLs isn''t just for your desktop.
