	<title>DESCRIPTION</title>

	<para>This VFS module is part of the
	<citerefentry><refentrytitle>samba</refentrytitle>
	<manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry> suite.</para>

	<para>The <command>vfs_acl_tdb</command> VFS module stores
	NTFS Access Control Lists (ACLs) in a tdb file.
	This enables the full mapping of Windows ACLs on Samba
	servers.
	</para>

	<para>
	The ACL settings are stored in
	<filename>$LOCKDIR/file_ntacls.tdb</filename>.
	</para>

	<para>This module is stackable.</para>

	<title>OPTIONS</title>

	<variablelist>
		<!-- please keep in sync with the other acl vfs modules that provide the same options -->
		<varlistentry>
		<term>acl_tdb:ignore system acls = [yes|no]</term>
		<listitem>
		<para>
		When set to <emphasis>yes</emphasis>, a best effort mapping
		from/to the POSIX ACL layer will <emphasis>not</emphasis> be
		done by this module. The default is <emphasis>no</emphasis>,
		which means that Samba keeps setting and evaluating both the
		system ACLs and the NT ACLs. This is better if you need your
		system ACLs be set for local or NFS file access, too. If you only
		access the data via Samba you might set this to yes to achieve
		better NT ACL compatibility.

	<para>The original Samba software and related utilities
	were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
	by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar
	to the way the Linux kernel is developed.</para>
