NAME
lsacl - list access control lists (ACLs) of files
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/lsacl [-l] file...
DESCRIPTION
lsacl lists access control lists (ACLs) of one or more files in symbolic, ‘‘short’’ form, one file’s ACL per line
of output, followed by the file name; see acl(5) for ACL syntax.
Options
lsacl recognizes the following option:
-l Print ACLs in long form. Each file’s ACL can be more than one line long, and is always preceded
by file name, colon, and newline. Consecutive file names are separated by blank lines.
If a hyphen (-) is given as a file name argument, lsacl prints the ACL for the standard input. By
default, it prints the file name as -. For the -l option it prints a file name of <stdin>.
Unlike ls, lsacl cannot list ACLs of files in subdirectories automatically or list the
ACL
entries of the
files in the current directory by default. A good way to do the latter is:
lsacl *
or
lsacl .* *
EXTERNAL INFLUENCES
Environment Variables
LANG determines the language in which messages are displayed.
If LANG is not specified or is set to the empty string, a default of "C" (see lang(5)) is used instead of
LANG.
If any internationalization variable contains an invalid setting,
lsacl behaves as if all internationaliza-
tion variables are set to "C". See environ(5).
RETURN VALUE
If
lsacl succeeds, it returns zero. If invoked incorrectly, it returns a value of 1.If
lsacl is unable to
read the
ACL for a specified file, it prints an error message to standard error, continues, and later returns a
value of 2.
EXAMPLES
List the ACL for the file dir/file1:
lsacl dir/file1
ListACLs for all files in the current directory, in long form.
lsacl -l .* *
ListACLs for all files under mydir:
find mydir -print | sort | xargs lsacl
DEPENDENCIES
lsacl will fail when the target file resides on a file system which does not support ACLs.
NFS:
lsacl is not supported on remote files.
