Hi,

If you are migrating from an existing NT installation you will probably
want ACLs (Access Control Lists). We have tested ACLs successfully with
XFS, although we still have some problems with XFS and LVM. If you want to
use Ext2 or Ext3 with ACLS, you will need some patches, backing up the ACLs
is not really a problem, because you can dump them to a file and back that
up with the tool of your choice.

You will also have to recompile Samba with ACL-Support, but that should not
really be a problem.

Just give me a call, maybe we can help you.

Mit freundlichen Gr��en,

Hello,

currently we are evaluating the use of samba in an nt server consolidation
project.
We need to figure out if the samba server is 100 % compatible with our nt
file servers or what differences exists.
We plan to use samba 2.2 with suse and the samba server should be
integrated
as a member in the existing nt landscape ( domain ).

My question is :

Do we need acl controls to offer the same funtionality with samba ?

If yes, are there any experiences with implementing the acl with a kernel
patch ?
What about backup and recovery concepts of the acl's ? Are they supported
by
the TSM client ?

Is it true that only ext2 is working with acl ? Can I use ext2 with LVM ?

What are your experiences,

thanks a lot
Matthias Wittpoth
