[Samba] Samba 4 Domain Member fileserver permission denied error

[Chris Alavoine]

Hi Lorenzo,

Have tried it with 660 but I keep getting "You do not have permission to
view or edit this object's permission settings" when trying to set the
Security perms via RSAT. Have rebooted both RSAT and domain member server.
Like you, I would expect 660 to work but it's not for me. For now I'll go
with 770 which is the mode we always used on our old Samba3 fileservers
anyway.

Thanks for your help,
Chris.
