CPACL(1)

NAME
cpacl - copy file permissions and ownership

SYNOPSIS
cpacl source destinations ...

DESCRIPTION
Normally cpacl copies access control lists (ACLs). Linux doesn't use ACLs so instead permissions are copied. The first argument specifies the object from which to copy the permissions. This permission is then applied to the remaining files and directories as specified.

EXAMPLES
To copy the ACL on foo to objects bar and zap, enter the following:

cpacl foo bar zap

cp(1), chmod(1), chgrp(1), chown(8), umask(2)
