samba - Aug 2003 - Security Tab

Is it possible using SAMBA 3.0 to set permissions on files or folders
in windows by right clicking on a file and clicking the secuirty tab,
then adding groups or users to have access or no access to certain
files.

I am finding that linux doesnt quite compare to the flexibility in
netware..

I have heard of acl support do I need that and where can I go for
reference?

you have to mount your Linux filesystem with ACL support. 

Depending on the distribution samba is already compiled with ACL support
and will use them. You should be able to maintain access control via MS
Security dialog.

You can have a look at: http://www.bluelightning.org/linux/samba_acl_howto/
