Wrong , that is how it is supposed to work.

It isn't normal and to the best of my recollection, it used to work
like that, you logged into Windows as a member of Domain Admins and you
could change the permissions on a share. I can only do this now if I
log in as Administrator, with a user.map set in smb.conf and 'min
domain uid = 0' also set. 

I think you could have found a bug :-/
