+====== Access Control List ======
+ACL is used for setting fine permissions beyond the simple octal modes of Linux.
+For it to work properly, the kernel needs to be compiled with ACL support for the filesystem being used, and then loaded as an option in ''/etc/fstab''  You can see if a partition has ACL support or not by executing ''mount''
+Optionally, remount a partition to add ACL support:
+<code>mount -o remount,acl <device></code>
+==== Giving Apache Write Access ====
+To give Apache write access to a directory (fex: uploads), you can run this to set the permissions correctly:
+<code>
+sudo setfacl -Rm g:www-data:rwx directory/
+sudo setfacl -Rm d:g:www-data:rwx directory/
+</code>
+The first line gives any user in the apache group read, write and execute access to that directory.  It also applies recursively.
+The second line specifies that any directories or files created in that directory will inherit those same settings.
+==== New Development Site ====
+After creating a directory on ''tahiti'', run this command using sudo to give all programmers read/write access recursively to the directory:
+<code>
+sudo /usr/local/bin/newacl -g programmers <directory>
+</code>
