OK, I did another test with a fresh install of Debian Bullseye and Samba 4.15.5 from Louis' repo.
I've determined that if you use the domain Administrator to set permissions from Windows, then if you
were to set the line: 'acl_xattr:ignore system acls = yes' in smb.conf the "+" disappears from
the 'ls' listing and users cannot access the share as the OP and Rowland points out.
If however, you use a member of Domain Admins to set the permissions from Windows
then the "+" is retained and users can still access the folder/files after the above line is added to smb.conf.

Can anyone explain this behaviour?
