+    <h3><a name="jht_acls">An ACL Overview</a></h3> 
+        
+    <div class="article">
+    <p>Samba Team member John H. Terpstra has written an overview of ACLs
+    for the system administrator dealing with both Windows and Unix (through
+    Samba, of course).  The article can be found on 
+    <a href="http://searchenterpriselinux.techtarget.com/">searchenterpriselinux.com</a>
+    and is a nice outline of the differences between Unix file system 
+    permissions and Windows' ACLs.  Those looking for an accessible and 
+    understandable introduction to the topic should check out John's piece.</p>
+
+    <p>From the abstract:</p>
+
+    <blockquote>
+    The parallel to this is that the Windows networking engineer will 
+    solve all file and directory access challenges with Windows ACLs, 
+    and the UNIX administrator will find this predilection both unnatural 
+    and awkward. Despite these opposing perspectives it is necessary to 
+    deal with them in an environment where Samba is used to provide Windows 
+    file and print services.
