Hi All, I've been trying to configure samba on Solaris 10 to allow me to have one share that is open and writable to all users and have the rest of my shares password protected by a generic account.

vfs_acl_xattr - Save NTFS-ACLs in Extended Attributes (EAs)
SYNOPSIS
vfs objects = acl_xattr
DESCRIPTION
This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.
The vfs_acl_xattr VFS module stores NTFS Access Control Lists (ACLs) in Extended Attributes (EAs). This enables the full mapping of Windows
ACLs on Samba servers.
The ACLs are stored in the Extended Attribute security.NTACL of a file or directory. This Attribute is not listed by getfattr -d filename.
To show the current value, the name of the EA must be specified (e.g. getfattr -n security.NTACL filename).
This module is stackable.
OPTIONS
acl_xattr:ignore system acls = [yes|no]
When set to yes, a best effort mapping from/to the POSIX ACL layer will not be done by this module. The default is no, which means that
Samba keeps setting and evaluating both the system ACLs and the NT ACLs. This is better if you need your system ACLs be set for local
or NFS file access, too. If you only access the data via Samba you might set this to yes to achieve better NT ACL compatibility.
