269.0. "acms_create_tpsystem registers invalid ACE" by TKOV60::OKAMURA (H.Okamura PS4-2/EJD3/NSIS, Japan) Mon Mar 31 1997 22:40

I found the underlying problem caused by acms_create_tpsystem.exe.
This executable issues acl_edit and specified ACE is invalid.

If the principal for TP owner is 'webuser' and '/.:/acmsxp030/bupntp' is
TP name, I suppose acms_create_tpsystem.exe issues the following acl_edit
command.

  acl_edit /.:/acmsxp030 -io user:webuser:rwdcti

Although 'i' permission is invalid, pre-CDS R1.1 allows this command.

This invalid ACE cause following error, when TP owner change the permission 
using acl_edit command.

  ERROR: permission not valid for this acl ( dce / sec )

The detail information has been posted Conf. DCE-PRODUCTS Topic 2179.

    Thanks for reporting this.  I believe the error is being caused by
    the acl_edit command we suggest you make in the install guide so that
    the IVP will run.
    
    We suggest the following acl
    
    $  acl_edit /.../avertz_cell -io -m group:users:rwdtcia
    
    
    Based on the info in the dce notes conference it would appear as
    though:
    
    $  acl_edit /.../avertz_cell -io -m group:users:rwdtc
    
    would be sufficient.  
    
    ACMS_CREATE_TPSYTSEM issues the following acl_edit command:
    
      acl_edit $namdir -io -m user:$principal:rwdtca

According to Conf. DCE-PRODUCTS Note 2179.10, "a" bit also cause this 
problem.

Please fix this problem in future release.
