Starting Point.

[Wade Klaver]

Well, after the whole backup/newfs/restore deal, things seem to be working a 
lot better.  That ls -l error appears to be the result of using UFS_ACL on a 
UFS partition that is not properly configured, so is it still worth 
reporting?  
  I did notice one thing: Shells that implement tab completion do not 
recognize a file as executable if execute permissions are granted only via 
the ACLs.  I guess this is a shell thing?  I am not sure how they glean this 
information.
  Previously posted question RE: an archive for this list: is there one?
  Again, any reading recommendations would be appreciated.
  RE: early adopting, if there's something here to break, trust me, I will 
break it.  Wouldn't be the first time. :)
