I have been using Ladislav Zezula's very handy FileTest (www.zezula.net) in an
attempt to get and set Extended Attributes (EAs) between Windows Vista Ultimate
(32-bit) and CIFS Server running on SXCE snv_84 x86 (64-bit) without success.
I have successfully used FileTest to both get and set EAs from the same Windows
system to a Linux system running samba. On Linux:
$ setfattr -n user.underwear -v grey file.txt
On Windows I confirmed (EA Name: UNDERWEAR, EA Value 67 72 65 79) and then set
(EA Name: beer, EA Value 6C 61 67 65 72).
Back on Linux:
$ getfattr -d file.txt
# file: file.txt
user.BEER="lager"
user.UNDERWEAR="grey"
$
When a ZFS filesystem on CIFS Server is the target an attempt to get EAs (using
NtQueryEaFile) results in STATUS_EA_CORRUPT_ERROR and an attempt to set EAs
(using NtSetEAFile) results in STATUS_UNEXPECTED_NETWORK_ERROR.
Anyone had better luck with other Windows versions and CIFS Server?
