Hi Jeffrey,
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I've passed your report
on to the maintainers of the cwis locker. Hopefully they will be able
to deal with it quickly.

What were you trying to do?
I was using https://web/ist/web/reference/web-resources/https.html to make a
directory and its contents (including subdirectories) web-accessible to only
a specific user.
What's wrong:
The suggested mitwebacls script doesn't change permissions on subdirectories.
What should have happened:
mitwebacls should probably include the following line at the end:
$ find $WORKDIR -type d -exec fs copyacl -fromdir $WORKDIR -todir {} \;
This line changes the acls properly for me, and because .htaccess.mit
presumably works recursively as .htaccess does on normal Apache web
servers, all the relevant changes should apply to all subdirectories.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
