Description Matthieu Patou 2012-03-05 17:45:55 UTC 
smbcacls keeps on looking for the configuration file in the default location:

strace ./bin/smbcacls  --configfile /tmp/pouet.conf 2>&1 | grep -E '(pouet|smb.conf)'
execve("./bin/smbcacls", ["./bin/smbcacls", "--configfile", "/tmp/pouet.conf"], [/* 23 vars */]) = 0
stat("/usr/local/samba/etc/smb.conf", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=785, ...}) = 0
open("/usr/local/samba/etc/smb.conf", O_RDONLY) = 

The problems exists also in master.
