Finder view of MacFUSE mounted volumes does not reflect access restrictions #164

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
In Finder, for folders to which access is restricted, I expect to see: 

* 'no entry' icons against folders that I can neither open nor write to

* 'drop box' icons against folders that are -wx (write, execute) only

* 'no write' icon in the status bar at the bottom of the window when I'm 
reading a folder to which 
I can't write. 

The absence of these icons is noticeable: 

* using sshfs-static (within sshfs.app) from the command line

* with sshfs and ftp in MacFusion.

The .PNG attached compares two Finder views of the same directory: 

-- (above) volume mounted via afp
-- (below) volume mounted via sshfs.

Try using the 'noauthopaque' option. You have several choices in what types of 
access/permission mechanism 
you use with MacFUSE.

No ACLs here; server is Mac OS X Server 10.3.9.

> types of access/permission mechanism

The restrictions are correct, it's just the Finder *window* that fails to 
iconise the restrictions.

Where did I say that 'noauthopaque' has to do with ACLs?

<http://code.google.com/p/macfuse/wiki/CHANGELOG> 

> •   Support for Mac OS X Extended Security (Access Control Lists), new 
option: 'extended_security'.
> 
> Details: You can now pass the 'extended_security' option at
> mount-time to enable support for ACLs on a MacFUSE file system. The
> ACLs that you get are identical to those in HFS+, except that they
> are stored in Apple Double files instead of being stored in the HFS+
> attributes B-Tree. Of course, you can use the same commands ("chmod
> +a 'singh deny read'", "ls -le", etc.) to work with these ACLs. See
> the man page of chmod for details. IMPORTANT: If you want the kernel
> to honor these ACLs while accessing the file system, you also need
> to pass the 'noauthopaque' option at mount time. Without this
> option, the kernel will try to talk to the user-space daemon for
> authorizations. CAVEAT: The Apple Double files used to store ACLs
> have the default owner, group, permissions as a normal file would.

-- but your suggestion worked, thanks :-)

(Changelog was the first reference I found to noauthopaque -- sorry.)

Is there any reason why this option is off by default? 

I'm curious.

extended_security requires noauthopaque for ACLs to be effective, but that 
doesn't mean noauthopaque can't be 
used otherwise. The FUSE API supports the access call, which a file system 
daemon can implement. If you want 
the call to go up to the daemon, you must have authopaque (that is, 
noauthopaque must not be provided). That's 
why it's not enabled by default.

Okey dokey ... I'll digest that when I change from my pyjamas into my office 
clothes (!) but if -- as I suspect -- 
the option will be preferred by users who work predominantly in Finder, then a 
jargon-less explanation will be 
useful. 

Any volunteers? 

Thanks to all...

'noauthopaque' behavior will change in the next MacFUSE release, so I'd suggest 
not doing anything user-visible 
with it yet. I might just take it out and make its turning on/off 
automatic/adaptive based on the kind of user fs 
daemon.

Sounds good. Thanks.

Testing publicly with non-public MacFusion 1.01 Beta2. First impressions:

  * volumes mounted via SSHFS seem fine. 

  * a volume mounted via FTP for which I *appear* to have root credentials seems fine. 

(I don't intend to test an FTP connection to some other server where I have 
less than root privileges. I'm more 
of an SSHFS/SFTP person.)

I suggest a change of status to 
Verified

Thanks!
