I do realise my howto is very Red Hat specific, however there are plenty of other distributions that don't have ACL support out of the box (Slackware, Gentoo, others?). Besides, merely having ACLs enabled in the file system is not enough - you have to understand the limitations of POSIX ACLs as well as how Samba's ACL support works, which is the other main point of the howto.
