[Samba] Weird permissions issues with samba shares and XFS

[L.P.H. van Belle]

Read this :

SHARE Permissions:
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_a_Share_Using_Windows_ACLs
See : Setting Share Permissions and ACLs
Click Start, enter Computer Management, and start the application.
Select Action / Connect to another computer.
Enter the name of the Samba host and click OK to connect the console to the host.
Open the System Tools / Shared Folders / Shares menu entry.

Folder permissions: 
Use explorer, browse to a folder, goto the security tab. 

Your problem is the "SHARE" permission. 

By default the SHARE permission is everybody Full controll
Thats ok, now everybody is able to read/write.. 
But only if the FOLDER permissions allow it. 

My guess.. 
/storage/test does not have the correct persmissions
Share permissiong allow to write but Folder permissions not. 

And cp... 

cp -a  --preserve=xattr  wil help imo.

Yes, but which user is runing the command? 
> ls -l /storage/test/
> drwxrwxr-x+ 2 root domain_admins 6 Jun 14 10:37 bar
> drwxrwxr-x+ 2 root domain_admins 6 Jun 14 10:37 foo

You missed ls -l /storage 
What are the rights on /storage/test ?
