An independent Linux utility inspired by AccessEnum, it walks directory trees, collapses subfolders and files that cleanly inherit parent ownership and permission bits, and highlights only boundary nodes where (UID, GID, mode) or extended attributes diverge from the parent directory. Key Features: * Ownership & Mode Inheritance Collapsing: Compares each directory and boundary file against its parent folder's UID, GID, and octal permission mask, collapsing matching descendants so administrators and developers can review permission transitions quickly. * Read & Write Scope Matrix: Classifies effective read/traverse and write access scopes (Owner Only, Owner + Group, World Readable, Group Writable, World Writable) alongside SUID, SGID, and sticky mode bit indicators. * POSIX Extended ACL & Xattr Decoder: Parses binary Linux system.posix\_acl\_access and system.posix\_acl\_default extended attributes directly from filesystem nodes into human-readable user, group, mask, and other entries, resolving numeric UIDs and GIDs against host passwd and group tables. * Inheritance Analytics & Structured Export: Visualizes inheritance collapsing ratios and mode profile distributions, and exports complete boundary matrices to CSV and JSON.

They update automatically and roll back gracefully. Snaps are discoverable and installable from the [Snap Store](https://snapcraft.io/store), an app store with an audience of millions. ### Enable snapd If you’re running [Kubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus)](https://kubuntu.org/) or later, including [Kubuntu 18.04 LTS (Bionic Beaver)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BionicBeaver/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu) and [Kubuntu 18.10 (Cosmic Cuttlefish)](https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CosmicCuttlefish/ReleaseNotes/Kubuntu), you don’t need to do anything. Snap is already installed and ready to go. Versions of Kubuntu between [14.04 LTS (Trusty Tahr)](https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-14-04-lts) and [15.10 (Wily Werewolf)](https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-15-10) don’t include *snap* by default, but *snap* can be installed from the command line as follows: ``` sudo apt update sudo apt install snapd ``` ### Install Directory Ownership and Mode Matrix To install Directory Ownership and Mode Matrix, simply use the following command: ``` sudo snap install directory-acl-matrix ``` ### Other popular snaps… [See more...](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) [See more in Featured](https://snapcraft.io/search?categories=featured) ### More things to do… #### [Get the snap store](https://snapcraft.io/snap-store) Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap. #### [Learn more about snaps](https://snapcraft.io/docs) Interested to find out more about snaps?
