Hi Lex

Thanks for your tip with SUBINACL. I didn't know this utility. I will
try that tomorrow.
Does anybody know a tool, where I can dump the whole ACL structure
from a Directory path into an editable file. Modify it and afterwards
write it back to the directory path.

That would be very helpfully

Roli.
