SetAcl Syntax -- especially Mark V

[Herb Martin]

Do you have or no where to get any SetACL samples?

The documentation is very sparse and ambiguous with
NO examples.

There was 22 examples the last time I looked
http://setacl.sourceforge.net/html/examples.html

Thanks -- they weren't in the package and I didn't
go back to look for them at SorceForge -- silly me.

That's some improvement.

That is also where I would have pointed you.
I have no library of usage example as I rarely use the (wonderful)
utility. It gets used only when everything else fails to do the job
and then I reread it all over again <G>, but I have saved the
examples page locally for reference. This one too:
http://setacl.sourceforge.net/html/doc.html
And I'm sure you could submit more example usage to the developers
for inclusion if you wish to.

Thanks.

Even those those 22 examples were a BIG help so that
I could see the general pattern. The syntax is very different
from most tools.

It appears they made no effort simplify common tasks but
went for "do everything equally complicated but no limitations"

Hello everyone,

has anyone a hint how to set inheritance with setacl.exe

There is no sample about it at all

I´ve tried the following syntax:

C:\WINDOWS>c:\windows\setacl.exe -on "D:\testfolder" -ot file -actn ace -ace 'i:so'

But i get the following error:

ERROR in command line: Invalid number of entries in parameter for option -ace specified: 'i:so'!

Thank you very much for your help!
