I don't think getfacl would be able to read the CIFS ACLs. As somebody else said, Samba is the correct tool for the job -- especially the one called smbcacls, even if it's not 100% functional. I suggest you give it a try.
Alternatively, if you feel like trying alpha software, we developed a tool around Samba to dump and restore NTFS ACLs from Unix hosts -- this is absolutely not production-ready, but the project page is there : http://sourceforge.net/projects/dumpacl You'll need the samba 3.0.22 sources for this to compile and run cleanly
Thank you very much for all suggestions. Simon's idea seems to be promising. I will talk to the customer if they can try it.
Best regards,
Jacek
