Just a silly question with the disclaimer that I know literally nothing
about z/OS's HFS:

Do you know that the ACL capabilities on the two systems are compatible?
~ In other words, can Linux ACL's on an ext3 filesystem represent all of
the information in your z/OS HFS filesystem ACL's?

Even if they are logically similar enough to translate one to the other,
are the ACL's in compatible formats?  Or will it take some work to
translate the one format into the other?
