On the face of it, only 'proxmox' and members of the 'proxmox' group
can enter the hypervisors directory, but notice the '+' on the end of
the permissions, this means that you have extended ACLs set. However
you are missing a parameter in the smb.conf global section.

Add 'vfs objects = acl_xattr' to smb.conf, restart Samba and then read
up on 'setfacl' and 'getfacl'.
