...to be build on a different implementation. The referenced website ( http://www.suse.de/~agruen/nfs4acl/) does not exist anymore and the xattr to access ACLs is different (system.nfs4acl for nfs4acl_xattr and system.nfs4_acl for nfs4-acl-tools). Is this a known issue? Kind regards, Christoph -- Quobyte GmbH, Berlin, AG Charlottenburg HRB 149012 B, Jan Stender, Felix Hupfeld, Bjoern Kolbeck

...VFS modules. When trying to access a file with an ACL going beyond the file's POSIX mode, access is denied by Samba. I guess this is caused by an mechanism to derive an NT ACL from the mode. Is there any possibility to skip Samba's permission checks? Thank you in advance, Christoph -- Quobyte GmbH, Berlin, AG Charlottenburg HRB 149012 B, Jan Stender, Felix Hupfeld, Bjoern Kolbeck

...cl-tools. > > So the only supported way to retrieve ACLs is by running a separate > executable? The nfs4-acl-tools make also use of xattrs to access ACLs. The ACL itself is XDR encoded, so access could be done directly by a VFS module and does not require the executable.

I may check if there are significant changes between the nfs4-acl-tools compliant xattr format and the existing nfs4acl_xattr module. Is there any reason to keep this module?
