I'm also having problems with ACLs, but on an ext3 file system with the acl
patch from http://acl.bestbits.de compiled in to the kernel (which I put an
-acl on the end of to make sure I was using the right one). The configure
script doesn't seem to recognise the ACL support.

Some output is below - if anything else is needed please let me know :o)

# mount
/dev/hda2 on <mountpoint> type ext3 (rw,acl)

# uname -a
Linux <hostname> 2.4.22-acl #2 Mon Nov 24 14:30:54 GMT 2003 i686 i686 i386
GNU/Linux

# ./configure --with-quotas --with-acl-support --enable-cups
<snip>
checking whether to support ACLs... checking for getxattr in -lattr... no
checking for acl_get_file in -lacl... no
checking for ACL support... no
</snip>

Red Hat 9.0 (custom kernel), Samba 3.0.0 (release)

Am I missing some (kernel) headers or is something else going on here? I'd
prefer to stick with ext3 if at all possible (part of disaster recovery
plan)...

Incidentally I can use getfacl to see acls on files in this partition,
although I haven't tried setting any by hand as I'd rather NT took care
of
all that.
