>+vfs_fruit Netatalk metadata xattr name on *BSD
>+----------------------------------------------
>+
>+Users on *BSD must rename the metadata xattr used by vfs_fruit when
>+using the default setting "fruit:metadata = netatalk".
>+
>+Due to a glitch in the Samba xattr API compatibility layer for FreeBSD and a
>+mistake in vfs_fruit, vfs_fruit ended up using the wrong xattr name when
>+configured with "fruit:metadata = netatalk" (default). Instead of the correct
>+
>+  org.netatalk.Metadata
>+
>+it used
>+
>+  netatalk.Metadata
>+
>+Starting with Samba 4.6 vfs_fruit will use the correct "org.netatalk.Metadata"
>+which means existing installations must rename this xattrs. For this purpose
>+Samba now includes a new tool `mvxattr`. See below for further details.
