My Dell server was preloaded with Redhat 7.2 , Linux 2.4.7-10, gccv2.96 with Ext3 file system. I want to install the machine into my company W2k domain using winbind but my Linux kernel does not support the needed ACls. I Does the latest Linux kernel come with ACL support and if so should I just update the kernel to 2.4.19 which I think is the latest production quality kernel? The ACL patches at www.bestbits.at list patches for kernels 2.4.19, 2.4.18, 2.4.17, 2.2.20 but not my 2.4.7-10. Does that mean the patches for 2.4.7-10 are not available or just should not be attempted?
When I researched it I found an article where they said that the version for 2.4.7 was buggy. The recommendation was to upgrade. I've successfully done this for use with Samba, so I know it works. You can still download the older versions, there's a link off the site to them.

> > I'd get a newer kernel, if I were you. :) And then apply the patch.That's what I did. The Dell RedHat installs have no problem with kernels that you've compiled yourself. I've always just used the sources from kernel.org instead of trying to use RedHat's sources. The only caveat is if you use up2date to keep up on bugfixes and security patches, you should make sure to add 'kernel*' to your exclusion list.
The Official RedHat Kernel might also balk at the ACL patches during compilation so you might be better getting a newer kernel from www.kernel.org. Then you need to ask yourself what those patches that Redhat used were for.... ;) Noel -----Original Message----- From: Kai Blin [mailto:kai.blin@med.uni-tuebingen.de] Sent: 24 September 2002 13:36 To: Sytsma, Richard; samba@lists.samba.org Subject: Re: [Samba] How best to get ACL support?

Suse have a policy of not having ISO downloads - if you want the CD media you have to buy a Suse boxed set. Redhat 8 is imminent - that also will have ACLs out of the box I believe. Redhat always have downloadable ISOs. Mandrake 8 has XFS support at install time if you needed something now.
