Hi Tamas, I have been reviewing you numerous posts on this list about 
this project, are you aware that you have been posting for 6 months ?

In your last post there was this:

this "piling up" of ACL information doesn't happen either on a native 
Windows file server or with vfs_acl_xattr
[/quote]

Does this mean you do not have 'vfs objects = acl_xattr' in your smb.conf ?

You also had this:
[quote]
this may be the reason why using POSIX ACLs with SaMBa is deprecated
[/quote]

As far as I am aware, using POSIX ACLs isn't deprecated, is it possible 
you can tell us where you found that information ?

It might also be a good idea if we could see your present smb.conf, so 
please post the output of 'testparm -s' (sanitised if must).

Rowland
