I-D ACTION:draft-gruenbacher-nfsv4-file-masks-00.txt

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts 
directories.

	Title		: NFSv4 file_masks Attribute
	Author(s)	: A. Gruenbacher, J. Fields

   Some NFSv4 servers allow a mode SETATTR to restore ACL permissions
   which were removed by a previous mode SETATTR.  This allows servers
   to handle mode SETATTRs without destroying the information in ACLs.
   However, these temporarily masked permissions are not exposed to
   clients.  This proposal adds an optional new file attribute,
   file_masks, which can be used by clients to see these temporarily
   masked permissions.

NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
