When I run a rpmbuild -bb samba3.spec with the --with-acl-support
included the configure script returns this:

checking sys/acl.h usability... no
checking sys/acl.h presence... no
checking for sys/acl.h... no
checking sys/attributes.h usability... no
checking sys/attributes.h presence... no
checking for sys/attributes.h... no

......... <CLIP>.........
checking whether to support ACLs... checking for getxattr in -lattr...
no
checking for acl_get_file in -lacl... no
checking for ACL support... no


I am assuming these are also important in the acl support function. 
Just for curiosity i ran find . -name "*acl*" in the source directory
from the rpm and found:

./include/smb_acls.h
./lib/sysacls.c
./smbd/posix_acls.c
./utils/smbcacls.c
./aclocal.m4

Is that all I need to get ACLS working.?

Thanks Again Alexey....
