Samba 3.0.1 - Wrong behavior

I’ve been working with samba 2.2.8 and now I’m trying to upgrade to 3.0.1 but wile I was testing the new version I found a couple of things that doesn’t work as I expect. I need the 3.x version because “idmap backend = ldap” option.

I authenticate users against AD using winbind.

Here we are

1.- It doesn’t display quota correctly from windows machine:
	With 2.2.8 I mount home directories and if I look the network disk properties I can see the size of the disk as the amount of user’s quota in that file system. Now, 3.0.1 shows me the size of the entire file system, although (of course) quotas work fine.

2.- Not able to modify ACL’s from windows:
	With 2.2.8 I use “admin user = @”domain admins”” shares option in smb.conf to indicate a group who connect the share as root, (when I look in the smbstatus, I see root in place the real user), and because of that; this group is able to modify acl’s entries. Now this option doesn’t work anymore, moreover I need to use “smbstatus –d0” if I don’t want to see debug info.

3.- I can’t even see acl’s entries from windows:
	If  I set an acl entry using setfacl it doesn’t appear when I look in file/dir properties -> security from the windows machine, I just can see unix permissions.

I’m using: RH9, ext3 + acls + quotas, Samba 3.0.1, Windows XP & Windows 2000

best wishes, Leandro.-
