Thanks Buchan for the update.  As you are aware I am a
Mandrake user so that information is very important.

It is still valid for a default installation of
Mandrake Linux (8.1 or
8.2), since Mandrake's kernel does not support the
bestbits patches,
although that should be possible in the near future
with the merging of
the ACL code. I believe the latest devel kernels may
have this.

So, in the context of the rest of the article
(choosing a FS during
installation), it is correct.

| No, there's Posix ACL support for ext3fs now, too. 
In fact, the xfs 
and
| ext3 tools are merging.  See:
| http://acl.bestbits.at/
|
| I'm not currently using ext3 with ACLs, but I am
using ext2 with 
them, and
| the two filesystems are so similar I wouldn't expect
any problems.
