Questions: Rightsmanagement on shares - WIndows vs. Linux

 

Hello,

in discussion with colleagues about ubuntu client user accessing file 
shares, someone said that Microsoft Windows is at least 5 years ahead all 
possibilities of detailed access rights on file shares. 

Sun created NFSv3 in 1995 http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1813 and seems not 
further improved. NFSv4 exists, but because of many problems, nobody seems 
to use it.

What linux file share rights management solution can compete with the 
detailed rights management of actual Windows file shares?

Thanks for help in advance!

regards,
Florian
