-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
I'm wondering how essential it is to ensure that Samba User/Group to UIDs/GIDs mapping across various Samba servers remain consistent. I realise that Samba uses the extended ACLs and also uses extended attributes to store blobs of Windows ACL information; specifically the reason for this is that Windows ACLs don't map 1:1 with POSIX ones. Basically, I want to know more about which Samba uses, how much it tries to keep the two in sync, etc. For example, a moment ago I changed the POSIX ACLs on a file that already had a security.NTACL glob in the extended attributes; and my change to the POSIX ACL didn't show up in the Security Properties information for that file. By far the best documentation that I've found so far is this thread, which might be out of date now and still leaves me unsure; as this suggests that the security.NTACL glob should have been updated. https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2011-February/160799.html For that specific test, I was running quite an old file server (Samba 3.4.7) because it was what I had installed on an old machine. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards, - -- Chris Hayes -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJR+bRsAAoJELgO0A8EguAKXpEH/Awlyq1856PAzRpGSRWGZ9Aw nuY85q3yrOWq1MkjAti4GLa34gu39HAHaw6kaz06rpZPlVOfR1ICFbq08GbPzR3j RCBRbVG7Ai/zUx99ey8ByINq5OmkClW5h9uJCGfPuM6+keJwwj4gT6BiY8FrM3mB Vk1BeYhzZciEXoy/uyP3dnbxWmV9LYGZWXSqwR2lC3ge6jFWRQyL9IES+1+7Ab/7 d+Qj+ObBZffLP5Gxmw3ETPpCMvrexM33B2VAIF5XLMaG+bbukFt8o2uW1UpFiaah AWMdHJbqqAlT7IZD87U5io+ZfKrDvz8tmej4m6LzzJSJD49VzDCAV/4h0sW6U8c= =soq+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
