+ xmlns:samba="http://www.samba.org/samba/DTD/samba-doc">
+<description>
+ <para>This boolean parameter is only relevant for systems that do not support
+ standardized NFS4 ACLs but only a POSIX draft implementation of ACLs. Linux
+ is the only common UNIX system which does still not offer standardized NFS4
+ ACLs actually. On such systems this parameter controls whether
+ <citerefentry><refentrytitle>smbd</refentrytitle>
+ <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> will attempt to map the 'protected'
+ (don't inherit) flags of the Windows ACLs into an extended attribute called
+ user.SAMBA_PAI (POSIX draft ACL Inheritance). This parameter requires
+ support for extended attributes on the filesystem and allows the Windows
+ ACL editor to store (non-)inheritance information while NT ACLs are mapped
+ best-effort to the POSIX draft ACLs that the OS and filesystem implements.
