Right. Linux lacks the NFSv4 ACL support and hence your problem. The choices was made to move forward not backwards. ZFS offers ACL storage for both NFSv4 and CIFS and does so with a reasonable degree of interoperability. The Linux client needs to catch up as most other commercial NFSv4 server platforms are supporting NFSv4 ACLs. Spencer
