I tried this here to Samba 3.6 with slightly different results: 1) If I set both a default and non-default ACL that seems to work 2) but as you and Rob saw, if I setfacl a default ACL it removes the non-default ACL 3) and if I setfacl a non-default ACL it removes the default ACL So for case 2 and 3 the behavior is different than for a local file system. This may be a server bug. For Samba 4 and Samba 4.2-pre (master) - I get an error not supported on this infolevel 512 (Set POSIX ACL). -- Thanks, Steve -- Thanks, Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
