I would like to see diskdrake and DrakX have another checkbox for acl support as an option for those filesystems that support acls (ext2/ext3/XFS).
Stew commented to me privately that acls break LSB compliance, as does noatime. So, since noatime is there already, either there is no reason not to add acl, or something needs to be done (dialog informing the user that the optoin breaks LSB-compliance) for both. Regardless, those people wanting a file-server appliance in a windows network would be best served by having the acl option easily available (I was going to ask for it to be the default, but I guess it can't be :-(). At present, Mandrake Linux 9.0 is probably the best choice for putting linux into a windows network (the kind with a windows domain controller, or Active Directory), whether as a desktop or as a file/print server. ACL support more easily would make it more attractive.
