[Samba] unable to validate owner sid

[Justin Weissig]

Hi,

I was hoping someone could help me out or just point me in the correct
directions as to what I am doing wrong. I have Samba 2.2.3a installed and
configured with winbind for domain authentication using an ext3 file system
with ACL support. It is working great! Thanks Samba Team!

The problem that I am experiencing is I would like to use an application
like "xcopy" to propagate the ACL permissions to the samba server from one
of our w2k DFS servers.

I have added a domain admin user to the "admin user =" string so that they
can create file as root so they should be able to do anything! The admin
user is able to authenticate to the Samba server and create the directory
using "xcopy" but when they attempt to change the permissions I get "access
denied" with this in my samba.log file.

I AM able to use ACL through the samba shares to change permissions manually
but when I attempt to use xcopy to transfer the permissions automatically
here is when I receive.

Why can't samba validate the sid of the authenticated user?
