Okay, let's try this again.
I have a Samba server, joined to my Windows Active Directory domain, and
I'm having a problem setting ACLs on a share from Windows. On Windows, I
get the error message "Unable to save permission changes on <folder>. The
parameter is incorrect." and when I look in my Samba log, I see the
message "ACL is invalid for set (Invalid argument)".
I'm using Fedora 13 with the stock Samba, version 3.5.4. Everything works
(joining the domain, accessing files, etc.), except setting ACLs from
Windows.
"getent passwd" and "getent group" return both local and AD users and
groups, respectively. Setting up user mappings doesn't solve the problem.
My underlying filesystem supports extended attributes, as you can see by
looking at the attached section, "getfacl output".
Currently, I'm trying to get more information, by compiling Samba from
source and adding debug statements, but I'm having some trouble, so I
won't be able to post any information from that effort, yet. (My compiled
version won't join the domain, even though I'm using the same
configuration file.)
I've also dug into some of the Samba source and discovered the error is
coming from a function named "acl_valid", which is called from
"smb_acl_to_posix", in the file "vfs_posixacl.c". I'll admit I'm no
expert on POSIX ACLs, but I have to wonder if there's a bug in the Linux
ACL functions, since "smb_acl_to_posix" uses *only* ACL functions to
manipulate the ACL, and someone else in this group said that very same
function works on Solaris. Does this work for anyone out there, using a
Linux system?
Thanks
