NFSv3 + ACL + XFS?

NFSv3 + ACL + XFS?

[Gopal Santhanam]

Hi all,

I am successful in exporting an EXT3 partition with ACLs through
NFSv3.

However, I cannot do the same for an XFS partition with ACLs. =A0I
did a quick search on the web and did not easily find any
information on this. =A0What's the status on this? =A0Is there a way
I can get this to work through proper configuration?

Thanks!
Gopal

Hi all,

Any ideas on the below?

I'm supposing it just doesn't work, but would like to get 
confirmation and some idea why it doesn't work before I decide 
to migrate all of my XFS to EXT3.

Thanks,
Gopal

Hm, odd, both filesystems appear to support the same underlying
interface for getting and setting ACLs, but I can confirm that ACLs from
XFS aren't working over NFS.  I'll investigate....
