Hello, I have today released an initial version of extended attributes and access control lists for ext3 (patch against the 2.4.13-ac3 kernel). Eric Jarman <ejarman@acm.org> has contributed a lot to this effort. Since I'm not very much into the innards of ext3, can some of you please take a look at the patch, and see whether it contains any flaws (and tell me which flaws)? Thanks! The

Documentation/ext3.txt suggests that the "user_xattr" and "acl" mount options are on by default. This doesn't seem to be the case, as the kernel deduces the default mount options from the filesystem superblock, and mke2fs does not appear to write any default mount options there. This error was spotted by Jacques de Mer. Signed-off-by: Daniel Drake <dsd at

Which filesystem supports ACL? Ext2/ext3 with the acl.bestbits.at patch, XFS and what other? Does 2.4.18 supports XFS or do you need a patch for it? What about ACL on XFS? Do you need a patch? Is there any filesystem that supports ACL, that the kernel supports without patches? Any place I can find a comparison of different filesystems with advantage and disadvantage of each? The Filesystems HOWTO

To all: I was wondering if there was any talk regarding the possible inclusion into either kernel 2.4.x or 2.5.x of a general and standard ACL interface for file system security. I've used the ACL patch from acl.bestbits.at on ext3 & love it dearly except for the quota issues. Despite those issues I absolutely could not live without ACL's on large file servers with a few hundred or

Is it still true that in order for a Linux hosted Samba server to have NT ACL support, the Linux box must have an ACL aware file system such as XFS or Andreas Gruenbacher's kernel patch ("POSIX ACL")? I read this in chapter 4 of "Teach Yourself Samba in 24 Hours". In the time since that book was written, has an easier method been developed, or has a

Hi. I want to use ACL on my RH-9.0 box (x86), so I got ext3 ACL patch from http://acl.bestbits.at/ and tried to apply it to the kernel that ships with RH (2.4.20-8). The patching fails on some vm file so I got a vanila kernel 2.4.20, apply the patch and compile it. This works fine. Also RH-9.0 precompiled Samba 2.2.7 works fine with ACL. I connected to my share with WinXP and do some testing

I tried running ext3 with posix acls (see http://acl.bestbits.at). The patches were easily merged and everything compiled fine. I created a journal.dat on my /home fs and mounted it as ext3. So far everything worked perfectly. But getfacl/setfacl didn't work on ext3. Mounting /home as ext2 solved the problem. Maybe ext3 and ext2 don't share enough code to get it working without rewriting

Hello out there again! I have a problem with ACLs: I build Samba 2.2.2 with ACL support. ACLs are 0.7.21 (from acl.bestbits.at) on a 2.4.10 Kernel. ACLs are working fine within Linux. When I connect to a Samba share from a Windows NT Workstation or Server, I only see the three standard acls representing world, group and owner. I have several files with acls for testing but non of this acls is

Hello, the current ocfs2 code nicely adds "select JBD" for EXT3_FS, but doesn't remove the following line, which is obsolete after that.

Well, note that I didn't say anything about the lib/ directory in that command; it's just that rsync decided to remove the symlink component from the path lib/modules/. Wouldn't it be more useful to make it

I guess I should stop here. But please don't forget to send a patch to Andreas Gruenbacher, the setfacl man page author since he states ? This utility sets Access Control Lists (ACLs) of files
