NethServer Version: NS7RC1
Module: fileserver / Open-LDAP
I set up an NS7 with Accountprovider OpenLDAP and created a shared folder.
There is no ACL-Tab when I edit the properties of this folder.
Is this meant to be this way or did I miss something?

Only the AD provider (both local and remote) enables authenticated access and the ACL tab.
http://docs.nethserver.org/en/v7rc/shared_folder.html
If no authentication or OpenLDAP is selected, shared folders doesn’t have authentication and everyone is allowed to read and write its content.

If you have OpenLDAP, you can’t have access control.
It’s stated also here: http://docs.nethserver.org/en/v7rc/shared_folder.html#access-privileges
If no authentication or OpenLDAP is selected, shared folders doesn’t have authentication and everyone is allowed to read and write its content.
Should we put it inside an highlighted box?

At least it would avoid questions like mine.
Just a question: why isn’t acl supported with openldap. It should be possible, isn’t it?

It should be possible, as we saw in ns6, but it would be complex! Samba wants its account database, because in the Microsoft world the rules are different from Unix.
We discussed this point in the past, during the Shared folder development for ns7, but I can’t find that topic now
