FIX_CACHE(8)

NAME

fix_cache - repair acl cache hash chains

USAGE

/etc/fix_cache

DESCRIPTION

The fix_cache command restores the node’s acl_cache hash chain, while retaining the information already existing in the acl_cache. The acl_cache is used to improve performance when converting AEGIS file protections (acl’s) into UNIX protection bits. The use of fix_cache is essential when, for example, a password file is accidentally removed and then recreated, thus making the node’s acl_cache invalid.
