i asked netapp if Solaris ACLs were either implemented or planned in ONTAP, and got a fast, polite, unqualified no.
does anyone else out there have any interest in ACLs of any flavour other than NT? (i'd like Solaris ACLs, in case that's unclear).
I'd like to see them support all the different ACL types, Solaris, NT, Digital Unix, Irix, etc. (at least, I think the latter two have them) and have them all interoperate reasonably well. But that's no doubt a big undertaking for Netapp with very little return.
It might make more sense is to wait on a standard ACL protocol (maybe as part of NFS v4) and then implement that and everyone will talk the same language.
