1. windows
- 1.1. why is uid (owner) empty?
- I use the standard perl module Win32::Filesecurity, which
gives access to ntfs acl, but not the owner.
I find another perl module for that : Win32::Perms, but
it is not commonly installed
- 1.2. Why is afick so slow ?
- I had some a test on 2 operating systems (linux and windows XP) on the same host,
on the same number of files, and it is much slowier on windows ( x5 ).
I do not know if it comes from perl interpreter or from windows it-self.
- 1.3. Error handling error: 123, GetFileSecurity ...
- The problem come from files without acl !.
it is fixed in 2.1 release.
2. installation
- 2.1. can I install afick on my computer ?
- afick just use perl, so can work on any unix* computer, and even on windows.
it does not need any compilation.
