samba - May 2012 - Edit security/permissions of Windows share from Linux client?

Is there a way to edit the security/permissions of a Windows share from 
a Linux client?

The Windows share belongs to a Windows Server 2008 server. From a 
Windows client I can go to the "Security" tab of the
"Properties" dialog
and edit the permissions. I want to do effectively the same thing, but 
from my Linux client

Is there any way?

Recent cifs-utils versions contain the getcifsacl and setcifsacl
programs that allow you to query and set ACLs directly. That does
require a relatively recent kernel (2.6.37 or so).
