Using access control lists (ACLs) to control access to files and directories z/OS UNIX System Services User's Guide SA23-2279-00 |

Using access control lists (ACLs), you can control access to UNIX files and directories by individual users (UIDs) and groups (GIDs). ACLs are used in conjunction with permission bits. There are three kinds of ACLs:
There are two kinds of ACL entries:
Additional access control mechanisms are allowed to further restrict the access permissions that are defined by the file permission bits. Because ACLs can grant and restrict access, the use of ACLs is not UNIX 95-compliant. ACLs are supported by HFS, zFS, and TFS. It is possible that other physical file systems will eventually support z/OS® ACLs. Consult your file system documentation to see if ACLs are supported. |
