setfacl sets (replaces), modifies, or removes the access control list (ACL) to regular files and directories. An access control list (ACL) lets you assign permissions for each unique user or group.
It also updates and deletes ACL entries for each file and directory that was specified by path. If path was not specified, then file and directory names are read from standard input (stdin). In this case, the input should give one path name per line.
setfacl is part of acl.
