You can prevent this from happening if you forbid users to change the ACL and enforce inheritance. That's the reason I can't give those files sensible POSIX permissions since they'd need to be translated into ACL which I can't write. All our filers are set up that way. No I don't think this is a good idea, but I guess there'd been one support call too many with a share that somebody made inaccessible by fiddling with the ACL.
