NAME

       getcifsacl  -  Userspace  helper  to  display  an  ACL in a security descriptor for Common
       Internet File System (CIFS)

SYNOPSIS

          getcifsacl [-v|-r] {file system object}

DESCRIPTION

       This tool is part of the cifs-utils suite.

       getcifsacl is a userspace helper program for the Linux CIFS  client  file  system.  It  is
       intended  to  display  a  security  descriptor,  including DACL and SACL for a file system
       object.

       This program uses a plugin to handle  the  mapping  of  SIDs  to  user  and  group  names.
       /etc/cifs-utils/idmap-plugin should be a symlink that points to the correct plugin to use.

       Fields  of an ACE such as SID, type, flags, and mask are displayed separated by /. Numeric
       values of type, flags, and mask are displayed in hexadecimal format.

OPTIONS

       -v     Print version number and exit.

       -r     Display a security descriptor in raw mode.  Values  such  as  type  and  flags  are
              displayed in hexadecimal format, a SID is not mapped to a name.

       -R     List the ACLs of all files and directories recursively.

NOTES

       Kernel  support for getcifsacl/setcifsacl utilities was initially introduced in the 2.6.37
       kernel.
