27 | .PP
|
---|
28 | This VFS module is part of the
|
---|
29 | \fBsamba\fR(7)
|
---|
30 | suite\&.
|
---|
31 | .PP
|
---|
32 | The
|
---|
33 | vfs_streams_xattr
|
---|
34 | enables storing of NTFS alternate data streams in the file system\&. As a normal posix file system does not support the concept of multiple data streams per file, the streams_xattr module stores the data in posix extended attributes (xattrs)\&. The name of these attributes is user\&.DosStream\&."ADS\-NAME"\&.
|
---|
35 | .PP
|
---|
36 | The file system that is shared with this module enabled must support xattrs\&.
|
---|
37 | .PP
|
---|
38 | Please note that most file systems have severe limitations on the size of xattrs\&. So this module might work for applications like IE that stores small zone information in streams but will fail for applications that store serious amounts of data in ADSs\&.

53 | The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell\&. Samba is now developed by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed\&.
