samba - May 2024 - file sharing using native NFS4 ACLs on Linux

Hi everyone,

Is it possible on Linux systems to share through SMB managed by Samba some
NFS4 mounted FS and that Samba is using NFS4 ACLs only?

The point would be to not store anything on Samba regarding ACLs...

Best regards,

mathias

Re sharing an NFS filesystem by Samba isn't a good idea.

And the point to that would be ???

You might be able to do this on one of the BSDs, but not on Linux and
as I already mentioned, sharing an NFS filesystem via Samba isn't a
good idea.
