Hello, I have a question regarding ACLs and their availability across different Unix platforms via NFS share.
If I have an AIX/FreeBSD/Solaris/HP-UX client that has an nfs share from a different system mounted on it, will the ACLs on the nfs share be processed properly?
My guess is that as long as the both systems can support ACLs, then they will be processed properly, but I do not know if POSIX ACLs can be read properly if the two systems are different operating systems.
EDIT:
Quote:
By default, if the file system being exported by an NFS server supports ACLs and the NFS client can read ACLs, ACLs are utilized by the client system.
This quote from
this site says that the ACLs should be read if the two filesystems both support ACLs. I just wasn't sure if that applied to all of AIX/FreeBSD/Solaris/HP-UX
Also I have the same question, but with NFSv4 ACLs. From what I understand, Solaris ZFS and AIX jfs2 with extended attributes both support nfsv4 ACLs. If I mount one system's filesystem on the other, will the nfs4 acls be present on the second machine?
