I've been playing with this on Debian Woody, with an eye towards eventually
replacing our RedHat 7.0 server.  Unfortunately the stuff on bestbits.at is
a touch RedHat-centric at times.

Patching and compiling the kernel works just like it does under RedHat, of
course.  The libacl, acl, libacl-devel, libattr, attr, and libattr-devel
RPMs from bestbits install cleanly with "alien".  Samba compiles fine with
ACL support and winbind if you do "./configure --with-acl-support
--with-winbind".  The only thing I haven't figured out yet is coreutils.
*Don't* try to use the coreutils RPM from bestbits; it will break a Debian
system.

Fortunately for my application ACL support in coreutils isn't strictly
necessary.
