Hello,

does the Linux NFSv4 server has support for alternate data streams?
Solaris surely has, but we want to replace it. As our Windows
applications (DB) rely on alternate data streams the question is
whether the Linux NFSv4 server can fully replace the Solaris NFSv4
server in that respect.
No. These are not supported on Linux and (likely) never will be.
Alternate data streams are just the sort of misfeature that virus
writers love.
