XFS and ext2/ext3 have a shared POSIX ACL Format now. It depends on a user space library writing ACLs as EAs using the new xattr interface in a defined format. The FS interprets the ACL then. It is pretty generic and couble be used by JFS too. -Andi _______________________________________________ Jfs-discussion mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www-124.ibm.com/developerworks/oss/mailman/listinfo/jfs-discussion
