OK, I found my problem and i am a little ashamed it took me this long to figure it out but here goes. The error i was getting when trying to adjust the ACL was "Changes could not be saved, access is denied" using Winbind, i had done the following: #chgrp "MRPARTYK/Domain Users" /ftproot which left the owner as "root". I have an entry in the /etc/samba/smb.conf file the equivalates root to administrator, so i thought that having the owner as root was acceptable, but i am guessing that the smbusers file only maps in one direction, from Unix ->Windows and not Windows -> Unix, because the solution was: #chown "MRPARTYKA/Administrator" /ftprooot Once i did this, i was able to change the ACL, all i wanted. Hope this saves someone some effort down the line. Thanks for the help i got from members of this list!

Because my set up only gives me access to the ugo/rwx UNIX permissions. I can't add an arbitrary user, like DOMAIN/UserX. Is this what you're able to do? Cheers, Adam.
Agreed, this functionality would be great, and the Samba books says works, so i have to believe it's possible. I looked at the logging and posted it on a response to another suggestion, it refers to unknown auth type 9 .... Looked through the archives and really didn't see any answers. WHEN i find it, i'll let you know :) On 1/4/06, Lee Rocky <rocky366@gmail.com> wrote:> > me either, > some ACL can't changed after apply. > only ro/rw/no access can be set. > It will be great if there's an option support 200x full ACL. > >
