Hi! I'm trying to setup samba 2.2.4 on MandrakeLinux 8.2. The server should act as a file storage for about 25 Windows 2000 clients. Setting up a "basic" server which just serves the files is easy. However, I'd also like to support NT ACLs on the Samba server. Well, what do I have to do, to get it to work? I'm using the Mandrake RPM for 2.2.4, which has ACL support compiled in on a "Mandrake" 2.4.18 kernel (kernel-2.4.18.14mdk-1-1mdk to be exact) which also has ACL support. I use XFS as the filesystem. acl-2.0.0 and attr-2.0.1 are installed.

Alexander, If what you say is true, all you should need to do now will be to recompile Samba from source. When you ./configure use the --with-acl-support switch. You'll have to double check that by running... ./configure --help | less ...and checking the --with options. Remember that after you recompile you will have to take notice that the rpm install for Mandrake puts the fils under /etc/samba, but the source build will place them under /usr/local/samba (unless otherwise specified). Also, using the source build default dir structure, /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb will not work properly until you edit it accordingly. Best of luck! Regards, Alan B.

Well...what _should_ work and what _does_ work are two different things entirely. :) I did misunderstand you. Perhaps I didn't even read your original post in it's entirety...my apologies. I am not a Mandrake man. I was just trying to shed some light on the ACL situation, as I use ACLs and the 2.4.18 kernel with a RedHat 7.2 ext3 installation. Whether Mandrake installs Samba to support ACLs by default I do not know. Perhaps another in the list has more Mandrake experience than I. Here Regards, Alan B.

I'm not saying that it's not working. In fact, I haven't yet set the server up. I'm trying to find out what I've got to do, so that everything works. If you're saying that with this setup everything should work, then I'm happy! ;) Alexander Skwar -- How to quote: http://learn.to/quote (german) http://quote.6x.to (english) Homepage: http://www.iso-top.de | Jabber: askwar@a-message.de iso-top.de - Die g?nstige Art an Linux Distributionen zu kommen Uptime: 1 day 23 hours 26 minutes
Alexander, Yes, it looks like it _should_ work. Seems that all the req'd modules are there. Either way...if you want to run it on a test machine, I will help you as best I can to work through the problems. Regards, Alan B.

Hi Alexander, ACLs are supposed to work out the box on Mandrake 8.2 with XFS (they worked out the box on 8.1), but I myself have been having problems with getting this working (stock 8.2 with win2kpro clients)... I still need to test on a non-production box ... maybe tonight. Sylvestre reported getting this to work with XP clients on kernel 2.4.18-4mdk or so with the acl-2.0.0 (duing beta), 8 March according to mail. Sly, have you tried on 8.2 release? From Windows 2000? I haven't managed to set acl's from the command line using acl, which may indicate problems with the shipped kernel ...
