Thank you Louis!
Unfortunately, I made some mistakes in my last question for which I 
apologize.
And I am sorry but I do not understand you recommendations.

Here is a more accurate view of things:

To reiterate we have a new Windows Server 2019 AD for authentication and 
new samba 4.11.6-Ubuntu member server for file sharing (\\proto1)

Looking at the wiki page 
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setting_up_a_Share_Using_Windows_ACLs#Setting_Share_Permissions_and_ACLs
It appears that in the "Share Permissions" tab,  the group "Everyone" 
must have Read access in order for the "Security" tab to be able to 
show/adjust security access.
After removing the share permissions group Everyone (changing it to 
something more secure) we are  unable to modify Security permissions. No 
users/groups have read permissions. Cannot take ownership or change perms.

For example, using the share in the smb.conf below- 
/0data/smb_shares/test05/ - located on the Samba server \\proto1
This is will be similar to the final configuration. All shares located 
under /0data/smb_shares
In Ubuntu we create the directory, adjust permissions and ownership and 
smb.conf

# mkdir test05
# chown root:HO\\domain\ admins test05
# chmod a+rwx test05

Configure in smb.conf
[test05]
     path = /0data/smb_shares/test05/
     read only = No

drwxrwxrwx   3 root domain admins  4096 Jun 30 08:03 test05

The new share shows up and is R/W on the Windows server 2019 and a Win10 
workstation joined to domain

On the Windows server -> Computer Management -> connect to  another 
computer-> \\proto1
Shared Folders -> Shares
Share Name: test05
Folder Path:  C:\0data\smb_shares\test05\

Share Permissions set for Everyone Full Control
Security - Object Name: \\PROTO\test05

Groups or usernames:  (none have any Allowed permissions.)
Everyone
root [Unix User\root]
Creator Owner
Creator Group

Add Domain admins and domain users with full control - exit computer 
management
Add domain admins and domain users to Shared Permissions. Remove Everyone.

Security Tab:
You must have Read permissions to view the properties of this object
Unable to modify Security permissions and cannot take ownership or 
change perms.

We have tested with several shares and sequences with the same result.



# /etc/samba/smb.conf

[global]
     disable spoolss = Yes
     load printers = No
     log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
     printcap name = /dev/null
     realm = HO.CLAY.BC.CA
     security = ADS
     server string = TEST server
     template homedir = /0data/smb_shares/home/%U
     template shell = /bin/bash
     username map = /etc/samba/user.map
     winbind enum users = Yes
     winbind use default domain = Yes
     workgroup = HO
     idmap config ho : range = 10000-999999
     idmap config ho : backend = rid
     idmap config * : range = 3000-7999
     idmap config * : backend = tdb
     map acl inherit = Yes
     printing = bsd
     vfs objects = acl_xattr


[test05]
     path = /0data/smb_shares/test05/
     read only = No


# /etc/samba/user.map
!root = HO\Administrator HO\administrator administrator



Thanks in advance,

mtg
