Hello all,
Some of you may be (or probably not) familiar with the trustees acl
project ( http://trustees.sourceforge.net ). For those of you who are
not, trustees is a non-posix recursive acl system. Seeing as I can
probably not explain it any better than Vyacheslav Zavadsky did on the
website listed above, I encourage you to look there for a more detailed
description.
I have ported trustees to the 2.6 kernel using the lsm api. I've been
using it on my own machine for the better part of the week, and it seems
to work fairly well.
Just wondering/hoping someone can take a look and offer any suggestions,
bugs, criticisms, etc. I would really appreciate it as I am very new to
kernel programming in general (this is my first project). I know some
of the code is still somewhat messy.

The tarball is checked out from my subversion repository, so you should
be able to do an svn update to pull down the latest version of the code.
Cheers,
Andrew Ruder
Instructions to use:
1) untar the downloaded file
2) cd trustees/module
make install
3) cd ../src
make
4) create a config file
I am currently using this config file
[/dev/hdb6]/var/www:www-data:RWEBX:andy:RWEBX
[/dev/hdb6]/usr/GNUstep:andy:RWEBX
[/dev/hdb6]/usr/local:andy:RWEBX
[/dev/hdb2]/andy/Project/Archives/svn:www-data:RWEBX:andy:RWEBX
[/dev/hdb1]/:www-data:RBE
5) depmod ; modprobe trustees
6) mount -t trusteesfs none /path/to/mount
7) /path/to/trustees/src/settrustees -f /path/to/config -t
/path/to/mount/trustees
If you change the config and want to reload the changes, just use the -d
flag on the settrustees line.
