<samba:parameter name="map acl inherit"

<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.
