[Samba] Trouble installing SWAT on a Samba 4 Alpha 13 build onUbuntu Server

Ok. I tried the following:
Navigate to share, right click --> Properties. Went to "security" tab then
clicked "advanced"
That opened up and I was able to click Add and then add my Finance AD group.
The Finance group even shows up with the selected permissions in the list of
users/groups.  BUT, when I click "Apply" all of the changes vanish. I took
some snapshots. Check them at the links:

Before changes:

After adding Finance:
http://lh4.ggpht.com/_qETGDInSB7Q/TT2tCEhe8kI/AAAAAAAALc0/4thnUxi_sBo/s400/finance2.JPG

But when I click apply, the jenfab\finance group dissappears from the list
and the changes never save.

I have tried giving 777 perms on the actual directory on my ubuntu box to
troubleshoot, but had same results.  I have also verified that ACL package
has been installed on my Ubuntu machine. What user:group do I need to have
the actual directory on the ubuntu machine set to?  Any other things I
should try?
