Greetings,

I've seen discussion that tar & cpio are "ZFS ACL aware";  And that
Veritas NetBackup is not.  GNU tar is not (at this time);  Joerg's "star"
probably will be Real Soon Now.  Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

What about other utilities like Samba and rsync?  We'd like to share
out ZFS storage via both NFS and CIFS, the latter of which is going
to require Samba here.  Is there a version of Samba which will allow
SMB clients to do ACL's the way a Windows/NTFS file server can support?
I've seen Samba do this (sorta) on a Linux Samba server using an XFS
filesystem.  Anybody tried this using Solaris/ZFS?

In the rsync case, I can see using rsync to migrate data from old storage
on UFS or SAM-QFS (which may have ACL's set), to new ZFS storage.  It sure
would be nice if rsync would copy the ACL's at the same time.

Regards,

Marion
