You use it by adding a line to smb.conf 'vfs objects = vfs_acl_xattr' , 
if you add it to a share it will only affect that share, but if you add 
it to the 'global' part it will affect all shares. You should also 
install 'acl' if not already installed, then do some reading on using 
setfacl & getfacl if you want to set the ACL's from Unix.
