samba - Jan 2002 - smbmount and NT ACLs

Hello,


I have searched the archives and could not find previous discussion about this,
please point me in the right direction if I missed it.

I have Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 set up with Samba 2.2.2 ( from source ) and the
Linux ACL patch installed in the kernel. With winbindd set up correctly, it
works great with NT ACLs!

I do have one question : I would like to transition the files from the 
current fileserver ( which is also the PDC ) to my Samba server which
has a NetBIOS alias of "fileserver".

Instead of simply copying the files, I would like to do something trickier
in the meantime, like using smbmount to re-export the shares from the PDC
to the Samba box.

I don't seem to have any problem mounting shares on the Samba box with
smbmount and re-exporting them using Samba, but smbmount does not seem
to support ACLs.. am I missing a configure switch?

P.S. I'd like to note that this would only be a temporary situation until I
get a new Samba file server up, which will take over the "fileserver"
NetBIOS
name and serve the shares up for real.



Thanks,
Rob Helmer

ACL support for smbfs is not implemented (only ext2 and ext3, as listed 
on the acl.bestbits.at webpage).
