Title: Mapping Between NFSv4 and Posix Draft ACLs
State: Active
Authors: Marius Eriksen
Group: Network File System Version 4 (nfsv4)
Date: 2004-10-27
The NFS (Network File System) version 4[rfc3530] (NFSv4) specifies a flavor
of Access Control Lists (ACLs) that apply to file system objects. ACLs
specify an access level for a number of entities. The NFSv4 ACLs model
resembles that of Windows NT. A POSIX draft[posixacl] proposes another,
more restrictive ACL model. Many systems implement this proposed standard.
Differing in syntax, semantics and extensiveness, it is only feasible to
create a correct representation for POSIX ACLs with NFSv4 ACLs. This does
not hold for an attempt to represent arbitrary NFSv4 ACLs with POSIX ACLs.
