Editing access control information (acledit command)

Use the acledit command to change the access control information of a file. The command displays the current access control information and lets the file owner change it.

Before making any permanent changes, the acledit command asks if you want to proceed.
Note: The EDITOR environment variable must be specified with a complete path name; otherwise, the acledit command will fail.

The access control information that displays is ACL type specific and includes a list of attributes, base permissions, and extended permissions.

For example, to edit the access control information of the plans file, type the following:
acledit plans
