NAME
       vfs_xattr_tdb - Save Extended Attributes (EAs) in a tdb file

SYNOPSIS
       vfs objects = xattr_tdb

DESCRIPTION
       This VFS module is part of the samba(7) suite.

       The vfs_xattr_tdb VFS module stores Extended Attributes (EAs) in a tdb
       file. This enables the usage of Extended Attributes on OS and
       filesystems which do not support Extended Attributes by themselves.

       This module is stackable.

OPTIONS
       xattr_tdb:file = PATH
           Name of the tdb file the EAs are stored in. If this option is not
           set, the default filename xattr.tdb is used.

AUTHOR
       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.
