It's a bit idiosyncratic, but should be easy enough to handle if you want, I think: on the linux client, on an nfs4 filesystem, the "system.nfs4_acl" xattr contains the xdr-encoded ACL as it came in on the wire (network-byte-order and all). See the definition of fattr4_acl in rfc 3530. --b. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-nfs" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
