[Samba] samba acl restore error

[suresh.kandukuru at emc.com]

Dear Jeremy and samba team ,

 This is suresh from EMC.I am  having samba 3.4.8 on my NAS  with posix acls support.



 When a backup software backs up files and folders, it typically backs up the security settings on the files/folders
too. Then during restore, the software will try to restore the files/folders
along with their security settings. The restore is now broken because security
settings cannot be restored any more.

I have enabled samba loglevel 10 . I  see the problem is coming here.

and I see the restore is working fine when I Restore all information except security for files and directories

the if (access_mask & SEC_FLAG_SYSTEM_SECURITY)  condition is not passing here and error is not coming.



Jeremy, what for we are checking this condition   on SeSecurityPrivilege ( Manage auditing and security log ) in samba code ?.

I am anticipating your reply.





Thanks
