FACL, Get effective: ---

Hi,

I've set for a directory the following

setfacl -dm u:aUser:r aDirectory
#set new files to be readable by aUser

cp ~/Desktop/aFile.txt /xx/xx/xx/aDirectory

getfacl aFile.txt #the copied one
# file: aFile.txt
# owner: me
# group: me
user::rwx
user:aUser:r--
group::r-x
mask::rwx
other::rwx

So indeed we see the aUser got r--

but

stat aFile.txt

return

(0777/-rwxrwxrwx) #!!!!

is that normal !!!!???

Thanks.

Update, this is only happening when I copy files from a ~SMB share... :'(
Otherwise it's correct...

SMB is originally Windows tech. So it might not play nicely with file modes?

SMB is weird, do you have the option to run NFS on the share instead? Since NFS is made for Unix systems, it's what I've always gone for.
