[Samba] URGENT problem in production enviroment 3.0.23c-1

[S. J. van Harmelen]

Problem seems to be with the changed "acl group control" parameter. When
I try to change rights of a file from within Windows I get an access
denied (I'm not the owner of the file but I am a member of a group who
has rwx rights). 

How can I regain this functionality? "dos filemode = yes" is already
set. I really need a solution, our customers are getting pretty grumpy.

Thanks...
