| NTFS is the file system of Microsoft Windows NT, 2000, XP and 2003. |
| This allows you to mount devices formatted with the ntfs file system. |
| |
| To compile this as a module, choose M here: the module will be called |
| ntfs. |

| config NTFS_DEBUG |
| bool "NTFS debugging support" |
| depends on NTFS_FS |
| help |
| If you are experiencing any problems with the NTFS file system, say |
| Y here. This will result in additional consistency checks to be |
| performed by the driver as well as additional debugging messages to |
| be written to the system log. Note that debugging messages are |
| disabled by default. To enable them, supply the option debug_msgs=1 |
| at the kernel command line when booting the kernel or as an option |
| to insmod when loading the ntfs module. Once the driver is active, |
| you can enable debugging messages by doing (as root): |
| echo 1 > /proc/sys/fs/ntfs-debug |
| Replacing the "1" with "0" would disable debug messages. |
| |
| If you leave debugging messages disabled, this results in little |
| overhead, but enabling debug messages results in very significant |
| slowdown of the system. |
| |
| When reporting bugs, please try to have available a full dump of |
| debugging messages while the misbehaviour was occurring. |

| help |
| POSIX Access Control Lists (ACLs) support additional access rights |
| for users and groups beyond the standard owner/group/world scheme. |
| |
| This option enables ACL support for ntfs, providing functional parity |
| with ntfs3 drivier. |
| |
| NOTE: this is linux only feature. Windows will ignore these ACLs. |
| |
| If you don't know what Access Control Lists are, say N. |
