    ACL Problem - (no)acl options not supported

    Hello Group,

    I am trying to support ACL on a debian box.

    OS: Debian
    Kernel: 2.6.29
    Hardware: openblocks 600
    fstab: /dev/sda1 / ext3 errors=remount-ro,acl 1 1
    lib/modules/2.6.29/modules.dep: /lib/modules/2.6.29/kernel/fs/nfs_common/nfs_acl.ko
    package: acl 2.2.47-2, libacl1 2.2.47-2

    I get the following error whenever I try mounting root directory with the acl option.

    LinuxServer:~# mount -o remount,acl /
    EXT3 (no)acl options not supported

    I removed modules.dep and run depmod -a but I am still getting the same error.
    Any advise will be greatly appreciated.

    Regards,
    Yuguri

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    ACL's (Access Control Lists) are part of SELinux. You need to enable that first before you can use ACL's. There may be other subsystems that allow ACL's, but I don't off hand know what they are.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.

    Dear Rubberman,

    Thank you for your advise.

    I checked the selinux package installed on a different box that has acl enabled. It had one selinux package installed which is 'libselinux1'. I have the same package installed on the box that I am having problem with.

    Regards,
    Yuguri
