I think at the moment the recommended way to manipulate file ACL's on
Samba shares is through the Windows interface. This works, but it is
really slow when applied to an entire network share. Even worse, if done
through a vpn connection, it is excruciatingly slow - sometimes taking
hours and hours for a file share of a few thousand files. Is there some
other way to achieve this on the Linux command line - either using
samba-tool, or some other utility? On the Linux side, setfacl or chmod
are lightning fast compared to their Windows counter parts - an entire
file share can be done in less than a minute - which is a thing of beauty :)
