   7 .SH NAME
   8 acl \- Access Control Lists
   9 .SH DESCRIPTION
  10 .sp
  11 .LP
  12 Access control lists (ACLs) are discretionary access control mechanisms that
  13 grant and deny access to files and directories. Two different ACL models are
  14 supported in the Solaris release:POSIX-draft ACLs and NFSv4 ACLs.
  15 .sp
  16 .LP
  17 The older, POSIX-draft model is supported by the UFS file system. This model is
  18 based on a withdrawn ACL POSIX specification that was never standardized. It
  19 was subsequently withdrawn by the POSIX committee.
  20 .sp
  21 .LP
  22 The other model is based on the standards of the NFSv4 working group and is an
  23 approved standard from the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). The ZFS file
  24 system uses the NFSv4 model, and provides richer semantics and finer grained
  25 permission capabilities than the POSIX-draft model.
