I have compiled both my kernel (2.4.17) and samba (2.2.3a) to support ACL/EAs. It looks like it has gone well, but I get one message that worries me, but I don't know if it should or not. checking whether to support ACLs... checking for acl_get_file in -lacl... yes checking for ACL support... yes Using posix ACLs checking for acl_get_perm_np... no As you can see, the last line is where my concern lies. Can anyone shed some light on what is being done here? Thanks alot, Al Moote

Check the tail end of config.log for details of the failure. jerry --------------------------------------------------------------------- Hewlett-Packard http://www.hp.com SAMBA Team http://www.samba.org -- http://www.plainjoe.org "Sam's Teach Yourself Samba in 24 Hours" 2ed.

Sorry to drop this on you Gerald, but this is what my config.log reads, but I
can't make sense of it.
I _think_ it's looking for sys/acl.h, sys/types.h and confdefs.h but not
finding them.
Can you offer any insight into this? Should I assume the ea/acl libs
weren't installed properly?

Juergen, Thanks for the insight, although this makes me think that the libraries are NOT installed correctly. Otherwise the Linux ACL libs would (as stated) support acl_get_perm() and I would not be getting the message. Am I wrong? when I compiled Samba it checked whether to support acl_get_perm() ...no That's what originally threw me off. Also, I know that the OS supports ACL/EA because I can read/set them with getfacl/setfacl utils. Samba does not let me set them with Windows 2000 security settings. I have tried using the NT ACL SUPPORT = YES under my shares too. What the hell am I doing wrong? :) Regards, Alan B.
