[Samba] "inherit acls" only works with "inherit permissions"

[FLW Tech Support]

 Posting the results of your suggestion -

With "inherit acls = yes" --
test.doc (file) and TEST (directory) were created with "inherit permissions
= no"
test2.doc (file) and TEST2 (directory) were created with "inherit
permissions = yes"
comp was a pre-existing directory with acl's set.
I restarted Samba after the change to smb.conf was made.
As you can see, there are no acl's assigned when "inherit permissions = no"

from the linux console --


[root at flwd2 Stuff]# ls -rlat

drwxrws---+  2 hanna     dig  4096 Dec 20 09:15 comp
