smb.conf.5: add clarification how configuration changes reflected by Samba

2020-10-20T08:50:13+00:00

Users of Linux distributions know to read smb.conf(5) manual page but
apparently not many of them read smbd(8) and winbindd(8) to understand
how changes to smb.conf file are reflected in the running processes.

Add a small section that makes it clear where to find relevant
information. Also correct the information in smbd, nmbd, and winbindd
manual pages.

The interval at which smbd does check for smb.conf changes was increased
from 60 seconds to 180 seconds in 1999 with commit 3db52feb1f3b.

vfs_zfsacl: Add new parameter to stop automatic addition of special entries

2020-10-15T19:07:40+00:00

Prevent ZFS from automatically adding NFSv4 special entries (owner@, group@,
everyone@). ZFS will automatically add these these entries when calculating the
inherited ACL of new files if the ACL of the parent directory lacks an
inheriting special entry. This may result in user confusion and unexpected
change in permissions of files and directories as the inherited ACL is
generated. Blocking this behavior is achieved by setting an inheriting
everyone@ that grants no permissions and not adding the entry to the file's
Security Descriptor.

This change also updates behavior so that the fd-based syscall facl() is
used where possible.
