| 27 | .PP
|

| 28 | This VFS module is part of the
|
|---|
| 29 | \fBsamba\fR(7)
|
|---|
| 30 | suite\&.

|
|---|
| 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\&.
