| 1331 | never became an official part of the NFS version 3 protocol. |
| 1332 | This protocol extension allows applications on NFS clients to |
| 1333 | manipulate POSIX Access Control Lists on files residing on NFS |
| 1334 | servers. NFS servers enforce POSIX ACLs on local files whether |
| 1335 | this protocol is available or not. |

| 1340 | clients which support the Solaris NFSv3 ACL protocol can then |
| 1341 | access and modify ACLs on your NFS server. |
