[Samba] ACL fully functional?

[Simon Travers-Jones]

I have a similar problem in that the security tab does not show up on 
_certain_ files if it is on a mapped drive.  It does show up however if 
i browse to the file through the nethood (from NT4ws - havnt tried 
anything else yet). Does this work for you??

btw - I havent quite assertained what the _certain_ is, I think its to 
do with ownership, but havent had much time to play.
