Linux 2.5 now has VFS support for extended attributes and the XFS and ext2 people have agreed on a userspace ACL library to implement ACLs ontop of the EA syscall interface. Having generic kernel support for Posix ACLs is just a matter of adding two headers and a few fixups to the core kernel. > > The OS/2 refernce source on the website contains code for EA/ACL support. > > I can't seem to find it. http://www10.software.ibm.com/developer/opensource/jfs/project/pub/jfsref.tar.gz _______________________________________________ Jfs-discussion mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www-124.ibm.com/developerworks/oss/mailman/listinfo/jfs-discussion
