Hi folks,

This may sound like a really stupid question, but I could not find any way to somehow map remote Windows ACLs into POSIX ACLs (mapping users and group SIDs to Unix mapped ids) when mounting a remote share (mount.cifs) on a Linux box.

Is is something not currently implemented ? The smbcacls tool can show the actual ACLs remotely, but this information is not exposed to the mounted filesystem apparently. The acl feature of the client seem to be an extension to CIFS allowing to handle POSIX ACLs, not something allowing a mapping.

Any insightful remark or documentation would be welcome!

[ Note: the only potential issue when mapping would be related to deny ACLs (AceType == ACCESS_DENIED_ACE_TYPE) ; something which is not mappable to POSIX ACL. ]
