[Samba] ACL Win XP problem

[Bart Hendrix]

Hello Jamison,

I'm not if I'm right, but if you want tosearch for a username when you want 
to set acl, you have to do this as root. So if the popup comes up, try 
username root and the password of root. Then you will see al users and you 
can add / modify and so on.
