[Samba] which ACL attributes are supported by Samba?

2003-02-06 Thread Ronan Waide
I've tried to determine this empirically, but have run foul of config
issues that won't be resolved in the immediate future. Basically, I
know that Samba + ACL + an acl-aware filesystem will allow me to
assign unix-style permissions to arbitrary groups of people for a
given file. However, Windows has additional permissions: delete, take
ownership, and, um, I think possibly one or two more. My question is
whether these are supported by Samba if I have extended attributes
switched on (which, as far as I can tell, should allow you to define
whatever attributes you like for any file)?

Cheers,
Waider.

you don't need ACL support for unix style permissions
(user, group, world)
ACLs are lists of arbitrary users that have the specified permissions on
the files you choose.

 However, Windows has additional permissions: delete, take
 ownership, and, um, I think possibly one or two more. My question is

I don't use those permissions so i'm not sure that samba supports them
but i think it does...

You do if you want more than one set of user/group acls per file.

More than one set of users/groups is not unix style permissions - that
is ACLs.
If you want to list those users/groups with permission that is a access
control LIST

unix style permissions means  drwxrwxrwx - only rwx for one group

 The whole point of my question was NOT these ACLs, but whether the

 this was that you didn't know.
 
 So essentially, you told me something I already knew, and said I
 don't know to my actual question. I appreciate that you're trying to
 help, but consider this: you don't have to reply to every question
 that's asked, and it's better to say nothing if you can't answer the
 question being asked in a useful fashion.
I'm not going to get into some kind of petty fight with you.
It was not clear to me that you understood the difference between ACLs
and unix style permission and it's still not... So I responded to the
part of your question which I had useful input to.

I just tried to set an acl on take ownership it doesn't stick - it
should.
Read and write attributes does stick.

I won't answer your questions in the future

Thanks, that's what I'd seen myself. I guess it's not supported at
present.
