Hi,

Getfacl reports:

# file: Default.rdp
# owner: mbolingbroke
# group: users
user::rwx
group::r--
other::r--

For a sample file that I am trying to change the attributes of. Since 
Samba should be authenticating me as mbolingbroke, I don't think this is 
the problem.

Thanks anyway! Have you got any other ideas?
