Hi folks,

My Backup Bouncer metadata test suite used to use fsaclctl to enable
ACLs on its test volumes but that program has vanished from snow
leopard.  Can anybody tell me what the procedure for
enabling/disabling ACLs is now?  I've searched for ACL/acl in the man
pages for hdiutil, mount_hfs, diskutil, etc. without luck.


It is enabled by default, and has been since Leopard.

The call to allow it to be enabled/disabled on the fly is to do an fsctl on the volume with the HFS_SETACLSTATE operand. Note that you will need to run as root for this to be effective.
