Hi there anybody... im all new to this trustee mailing list thingy, just read nearly all pages about trustee 4 linux and got a bit confused. all i found here is a pretty low activity and it seems lots of "old" news and documentations. So as an old netware guy, id like to ask you devs what is the status quo of linux trustees ? Would u please give me/us a short report of whats going on here and what will propably happen in future? Assuming Today 6/2009: 1. Whats the Status of Trustees in Linux Today? Is it part of the official Linux Kernel? or is it just "a patch" ? 2. whats the recent developing activities on linux trustees ? 3. has trustees been contributed/send in to the linux kernel.org thingy yet ? is there a chance to become official part/support of the kernel? 4. are there any prepared debian packages for Debian Lenny (repositories) ? 5. are ther any known new filesystem permission/security features in the current or next-version kernel that might replace linux trustees or ACLs in a "better way" ? 6. Did someone test linux trustees with current nfs and samba version? or more specific: are there any known problems with that ? well.. THANK YOU for any Information provided and Word done! But as an simple Linux User and the lack of news/docs on linux trustee project im pretty much lost but curious about whats going on here. best regards Axel Werner |
