[Samba] hiding Unix perms

Hello,
Sorry if I missed this in the docs, I haven't seen an option to do this..
I have a Samba server ( Linux 2.20acl kernel ) named "fileserver" set up and
working well as a fileserver to Windows clients ( I am using winbind also ).
Samba has some awesome capabilities nowadays :) The current issues I am
facing aren't exactly showstoppers, but I know they'll be confusing if I
open it up to users as the main file server when it's like this.
I've noticed that from a Windows box, I can see permissions that match
the Unix permissions ( \\fileserver\rhelmer, \\fileserver\samba and
Everyone ).
Also, if I create a file, ( logged into the domain as rhelmer ), it uses
my Unix account ( \\fileserver\rhelmer as the owner, not \\domain\rhelmer ).
I have a script that creates a Unix account for every validated user
from the domain, is this the cause ? ( not sure if I need to do this
anymore now that I am using winbind and ACL ).
How can I :
1) not display the Unix permissions to Windows users ( they can't change
them anyway.. )
2) have files created by a domain user be owned by \\domain\user not
\\fileserver\user
Thanks,
Rob
