Description clear.screen 2022-08-04 04:26:42 UTC

A section about ACL management in ZFS chapter (20) should be added

- What is suported in current freebsd release : NFSV4, POSIX.1 ?

- How ZFS deals with that with zfs properties : acltype and xattr (=sa if posix ?)
  and other properties

=> It can be a difficulty for ZFS user.

Use case 1 : This has serious implication with samba4.

Use case 2 : rsync from other FS can fail because of ACL type misconfiguration

NB : some commercial books avoid that explanations, so the FreeBSD handbook should help users with that !
