Access Control List (ACL) || getfacl || setfacl || Part1

In this video, we'll be discussing the Access Control List (ACL) in Linux. We'll be covering named ACLs, as well as how to use the setfacl command to set ACLs on files and directories.

If you're new to Linux and want to learn more about ACLs, then this video is for you! We'll cover everything you need to know about ACLs in Linux, from how to use them to what their benefits are. Be sure to watch this video, and let us know what you think in the comments!

The standard Linux permissions are suitable for most situations but they have their own limitations. The standard permissions limit access to file owner, group owner and others. But, what-if we want to grant specific permission to another named user, other than the user-owner or another named group other than the group-owner. Access Control List (ACL) allows us to set these fine grained permissions.
$getfacl to view ACL permissions
$setfacl -m to set ACL on file and directory
$setfacl -b to delete ACL
$setfacl -R to set recursive ACL
