[Samba] Failed to parse ACL smbcacls

[Herb Lewis]

It looks like the documentation is slightly off. If you use
a number for the type field (after last colon) you need to 
use a number for the permissions field. If you want to use
RWX for the permissions try ALLOWED or DENIED for the type

#smbcacls //localhost/public te1st.txt -A ACL:frankie:ALLOWED/0/RWX -U
javi
