This is _great_ news. I've been administering netware systems since
1993 or something. Since the last years I have been using Linux more
and more, but the very limited user and group rights implementations
on the traditional Linux filesystems compared to netware are... well,
bad. :-(

I knew there was something like ACL but I didn't feel like tweaking,
I'm not much of a kernel hacker I'm afraid. But IMO getting this as a
standard in Linux distro's is a great step forward.

I had my doubts when I went from RH9 to FC1, but now I've heard this
I'm glad I have made the step (even though I will have to wait until
FC2).

So, thank you Fedora community!!!
