On an NFS file system the number of groups a user can be member of is limited to 16. On the other hand you could argue and say that this is a limitation of NFS. NFS might also have some problems with ACL if the server and client are running different operating systems. regards Henrik -- The address in the header is only to prevent spam.

One of the other advantages are 'default ACLs' that can be applied to directories, which specify what ACLs should be used for creating files and directories within that directory. It is much more sophisticated than umask, and allows for detailed per-directory behavior. -- Daniel
