And if their patches are not incorporated by Marcelo, the 18-year Brazilian wonder kid who is nowin charge of the stable kernel, then there may be some unknown consequences. That's a good point. RedHat betas come with libacl and libattr. Red Hat beta samba comes with acl support too.

Oops. Forgot we have moved to the 2.4.20 kernel. Upgrading the kernel. Best example of easier said than done. I have never ever had any success in upgrading the kernel. There's always something that went wrong. ;-(
