[SATLUG] Permissions issues on NFS/Reiser...

ACL Settings:
Directory:
# owner: john
# group: users
user::rwx
group::rwx
other::---
default:user::rwx
default:group::rwx
default:group:users:rwx
default:mask::rwx
default:other::---

I agree that permissions are set on dirs/files, but the permissions are
different based on what app is used to save the file: acroread,
OpenOffice, etc.

Created new file with Open Office:
# file: test.odt
# owner: john
# group: users
user::rw-
group::rwx                      #effective:rw-
group:users:rwx                 #effective:rw-
mask::rw-
other::---

Saved PDF from Acrobat 7:
# file: test.pdf
# owner: john
# group: users
user::rw-
group::rwx                      #effective:---
group:users:rwx                 #effective:---
mask::---
other::---

Default ACLs are shown above in the getfacl of the directory.
