    <para>This boolean parameter controls whether <citerefentry><refentrytitle>smbd</refentrytitle>                                       
    <manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> will allow clients to attempt to store OS/2 style Extended
    attributes on a share. In order to enable this parameter the underlying filesystem exported by
    the share must support extended attributes (such as provided on XFS and EXT3 on Linux, with the
    correct kernel patches). On Linux the filesystem must have been mounted with the mount
        option user_xattr in order for extended attributes to work, also
        extended attributes must be compiled into the Linux kernel.
