Hi again! What's even weirder is that the groups are being found without any problem. a listing with ls -l shows e.g. -rwxrw-r-- 1 2035 CENTRUM+Domänen-Admins 6164091 Jul 13 16:25 solakov.jpg typing setfacl -m g:CENTRUM+groupname:rw- worksm, but not on the userlevel. Any help woul¶d be appreciated. Many thanks, .peter
