NAME
vfs_acl_xattr - Save NTFS-ACLs in Extended Attributes (EAs)SYNOPSIS
- vfs objects = acl_xattr
DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
The vfs_acl_xattr VFS module stores NTFS Access Control Lists (ACLs) in Extended Attributes (EAs). This enables the full mapping of Windows ACLs on Samba servers.
The ACLs are stored in the Extended Attribute security.NTACL of a file or directory. This Attribute is not listed by getfattr -d filename. To show the current value, the name of the EA must be specified (e.g. getfattr -n security.NTACL filename).
This module forces the following parameters:
-
- • inherit acls = true
- • dos filemode = true
- • force unknown acl user = true
OPTIONS
acl_xattr:ignore system acls = [yes|no]
-
When set to
yes, a best effort mapping from/to the POSIX ACL layer will
not
be done by this module. The default is
no, which means that Samba keeps setting and evaluating both the system ACLs and the NT ACLs. This is better if you need your system ACLs be set for local or NFS file access, too. If you only access the data via Samba you might set this to yes to achieve better NT ACL compatibility.
If acl_xattr:ignore system acls is set to yes, the following additional settings will be enforced:
-
- • create mask = 0666
- • directory mask = 0777
- • map archive = no
- • map hidden = no
- • map readonly = no
- • map system = no
- • store dos attributes = yes
-
acl_xattr:default acl style = [posix|windows]
-
This parameter determines the type of ACL that is synthesized in case a file or directory lacks an
security.NTACL
xattr.
When set to posix, an ACL will be synthesized based on the POSIX mode permissions for user, group and others, with an additional ACE for NT Authority\SYSTEM will full rights.
When set to windows, an ACL is synthesized the same way Windows does it, only including permissions for the owner and NT Authority\SYSTEM.
The default for this option is posix.
