Im successfully compiled my own samba 2.2.1 on a RH 7.1 + XFS system.
For 'historical' reasons I keep samba outside the RPM/Redhat configure
system - all my scripts know about /usr/local/samba...
I did notice one problem with Samba on XFS systems. Quota support
doesn't work. After a look in smbd/quota.c, I see the quota's don't work
as XFS doesn't fill out the standard linux quota data structure, you
have to use XFS specfic structures.
NetAtalk also has linux quota code that has exactly the same problem.
Any particular reason why XFS doesn't fill out the 'standard' quota
data structure. As it stands any linux application that checks quota's
wont see XFS file system quotas with out modification. If you run
multiple file systems the quota code then needs to know the file system
type...
Sure you might get more information out of the XFS specific one, but
the basic info is the same.
