The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Allowing Inheritable NFSv4 Access Control Entries to Override the Umask' (draft-ietf-nfsv4-umask-04.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Network File System Version 4 Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Mirja Kühlewind and Spencer Dawkins. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-nfsv4-umask/ Technical Summary In many important environments, inheritable NFSv4 ACLs can be rendered ineffective by the application of the per-process umask. This can be addressed by transmitting the umask and create mode as separate pieces of data, allowing the server to make more intelligent decisions about the permissions to set on new files. This document proposes a protocol extension which accomplishes that. Working Group Summary The working group has been supportive of this work with little to no contention over the approach and resultant content. Document Quality The quality of this document is high and is ready to move forward. Personnel Document Shepherd: Spencer Shepler Area Director: Spencer Dawkins
