NAME

6       vfs_acl_xattr - Save NTFS-ACLs in Extended Attributes (EAs)
7

SYNOPSIS

9       vfs objects = acl_xattr
10

DESCRIPTION

12       This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
13
14       The vfs_acl_xattr VFS module stores NTFS Access Control Lists (ACLs) in
15       Extended Attributes (EAs). This enables the full mapping of Windows
16       ACLs on Samba servers.
17
18       The ACLs are stored in the Extended Attribute security.NTACL of a file
19       or directory. This Attribute is not listed by getfattr -d filename. To
20       show the current value, the name of the EA must be specified (e.g.
21       getfattr -n security.NTACL filename).
22
23       This module is stackable.

OPTIONS

26       acl_xattr:ignore system acls = [yes|no]
27           When set to yes, a best effort mapping from/to the POSIX ACL layer
28           will not be done by this module. The default is no, which means
29           that Samba keeps setting and evaluating both the system ACLs and
30           the NT ACLs. This is better if you need your system ACLs be set for
31           local or NFS file access, too. If you only access the data via
32           Samba you might set this to yes to achieve better NT ACL
33           compatibility.

38       Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.
