I have similar problems getting ACL's to work with samba. So far I have found out the following:
Setup1:
Suse (SLES8) with suse kernel 2.4.19, samba 3.0.2a from sernet.de (all tests John mentioned below succeeded) and reiserfs and xfs as filesystems.
Setup2:
Gentoo with kernel 2.6.0 and samba 3.0.2 self compiled with xfs as filesystem.
One additional difference is that Setup2 is the PDC with LDAP backend and Setup one has joined the domain as member server (interestingly I see <netbiosnameofserver>/<username> instead of <domainname>/<username> from the permissions tab).
Setup1 can: -access all shares as expected. -create files and directories with normal permissions from explorer. -delete additional groups/users through explorer. -add/delete additional groups/users with setfacl.
Setup1 cannot: -add additional groups/users to files/folders through explorer. -newly created files do not inherit additional groups/users.
Setup2 can: -hmm, everything is just fine ;)
seems like the old suse kernel doesn't play well with ACL's.
greetings Paul
BTW: Is there any document/ table describing how NT acl's map to POSIX acl's.
