[Samba] Samba4: where are ACLs stored?

2013-09-26 Thread Klaus Hartnegg
Hi, most file access rights sync between ACLs of linux and the security tab of windows file properties, but not all. Where are the other infos stored? I tried in linux 'getfattr -d' and 'samba-tool ntacl get', but neither output changed when using windows to add individual right for a user
