-	If this parameter is set Samba no longer attempts to map DOS attributes like SYSTEM, HIDDEN, 
-	ARCHIVE or READ-ONLY to UNIX permission bits (such as the <smbconfoption name="map hidden"/>. 
-	Instead, DOS attributes will be stored onto an extended attribute in the UNIX filesystem, 
-	associated with the file or directory. For this to operate correctly, the parameters 
-	<smbconfoption name="map hidden"/>, <smbconfoption name="map system"/>, 
-	<smbconfoption name="map archive"/> must be set to off. This parameter writes the DOS 
-	attributes as a string into the extended attribute named "user.DOSATTRIB". This extended attribute
-	is explicitly hidden from smbd clients requesting an EA list.i On Linux the filesystem must have 
-	been mounted with the mount option user_xattr in order for extended attributes to work, also
-	extended attributes must be compiled into the Linux kernel.
+	If this parameter is set Samba attempts to first read DOS attributes (SYSTEM, HIDDEN, ARCHIVE or
+	READ-ONLY) from a filesystem extended attribute, before mapping DOS attributes to UNIX permission bits (such
+	as occurs with <smbconfoption name="map hidden"/> and <smbconfoption name="map readonly"/>).  When set, DOS
+	attributes will be stored onto an extended attribute in the UNIX filesystem, associated with the file or
+	directory.  For no other mapping to occur as a fall-back, the parameters <smbconfoption name="map hidden"/>,
+	<smbconfoption name="map system"/>, <smbconfoption name="map archive"/> and <smbconfoption name="map
+	readonly"/> must be set to off.  This parameter writes the DOS attributes as a string into the extended
+	attribute named "user.DOSATTRIB". This extended attribute is explicitly hidden from smbd clients requesting an
+	EA list. On Linux the filesystem must have been mounted with the mount option user_xattr in order for
+	extended attributes to work, also extended attributes must be compiled into the Linux kernel.
