I'm having an issue with CIFS ACLs, and I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, but it's a good place to start. Until now, we've been all Samba-based for our file services. I developed a backup system that uses rsync to back the data up to hard drives on a remotew system. Thanks to the ACL patch in rsync, everything was preserved and all was good.
Now, we're rolling in a NetApp filer. I can't figure out a good way to back the data up off of that machine while preserving the ACLs. CIFS mounting only shows posix-compliant ACLs (Which neither NetApp or Windows use) I'm sure this has come up before. What do people do to back CIFS shares to Linux systems. Is it even possible?
