HP CIFS Server 2.2i Administrator's Guide version A.01.11.01

Installing and Conﬁguring the HP CIFS Server

Step 3: Modify the Conﬁguration

Chapter 2 33

This example supports only VxFS POSIX ACLs on the entire share.

Attempts to get or set ACLs from the client will only succeed if VxFS

POSIX ACLs are supported on that ﬁle system. If only UNIX

permissions are supported, attempts to get or set ACLs from the

client will fail.

• Example four:

acl schemes = hpux_posix unix

HP CIFS will attempt to use VxFS POSIX ACLs. If ACLs are not

present, it will use UNIX permissions.

Conﬁgure ACL Support (for version A.01.08)

HP CIFS Server, version A.01.08, provides a share level variable called

“nt acl support.” The possible values for this variable are “yes” and “no.”

This variable defaults to “yes.” Using this variable, users can turn on/off

ACL support on a per-share basis. Refer to chapter 3 in this manual for

more information about ACLs.

IMPORTANT VxFS POSIX ACL ﬁle permissions only work when JFS 3.3 or disk

layout version 4 is installed on your system. Learn how to install JFS 3.3

on HP-UX 11.0 in the HP JFS 3.3 and HP OnLineJFS 3.3 Release Notes

(MPN B3929-90007), located at www.docs.hp.com. Learn about installing

and upgrading disk layout versions in the HP JFS 3.3 and

HPOnLineJFS 3.3 VERITAS File System 3.3 System Administrator’s

Guide (MPN B3929-90011) also located at www.docs.hp.com.

Conﬁgure Case Sensitivity

By default, the HP CIFS Server is conﬁgured to be case insensitive, like

DOS and NT.

NOTE HP recommends that when using CIFS Extensions for UNIX, both the

CIFS Client and Server be conﬁgured to be case sensitive.

For the CIFS Server, edit the server conﬁguration ﬁle:

/etc/opt/samba/smb.conf as follows.
