I'm not quite sure what you observe there.  The NULL SID ACE only
contains extra information about some POSIX bits and the MASK value.
It's existence and setting should not influence what you can do with the
file.  The permission bits are explicitely set elsewhere in the ACL.

Can you reproduce the issue so that I can see what's going on?  I need
the icacls output for the file and its parent directory, as well as the
output from getfacl for both.


Thanks,
Corinna
