Hello,

we have a SLES8 system with kernel 2.4.19-64GB-SMP and would like to add 
ACLs to the files system. As far as I can see the ACL options are 
compoled into the kernel. Is it possible to add the acl option to the 
/etc/fstab entry and then remount the filesystem with -o remount even 
with open files ?

When the remount is done do I have to starta another program or so or is 
this all I have to do ?

Thanks
Andreas

I tried it with suse 10.1 / Linux-2.6.16.13 and it works fine.

a reiserfs volume was mounted under /mnt/testfs, then I did

	mount -o remount,acl /mnt/testfs 

and setfacl started to work.
I even tried it with fs with one open file.  it worked.

Yes, ACLs are safe to enable and disable on-the-fly with -oremount,{,no}acl.
