mvxattr - Recursively rename extended attributes

Author

       The original Samba software and related utilities were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
       by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar to the way the Linux kernel is developed.

       The mvxattr manpage was written by Ralph Boehme.
