    Uhm ... Unix has POSIX/SUS ACLs. That is to say that the same thing exists, albeit with different semantics. To pretend in 2018 that Unix has just file modes is a bit negligent. The real question isn't whether both NT and Unix have ACLs but whether they can be mapped onto each other and whether a facility exists on the unixoid system in question.

    @0xC0000022L There are also NFSv4 ACLs. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Access_control_list#Filesystem_ACLs Commented May 28, 2018 at 14:39
