If you want to use ACLs you need:

        1. ACLs support in your Linux kernel
        2. File systems formatted correctly
        3. To mount the file systems correctly in /etc/fstab
        4. Samba to be compiled and linked with the acls-devel libraries

Here is an entry from my fstab file for example;
        /dev/hda6       /export reiserfs        acl,user_xattr 1 2


I run SuSE SLES8, 8.2 and 9.0 with ACLs support without any problems.

The relication of ACLs from a Windows server to a Samba server requires
use of the correct Windows tools and does present limitations. You can do
this only when logged onto the Windows server/client as the Domain
Administrator and you must have Domain Administrator rights under Samba.
