Setting user permissions (acl) with standalone server & Win XP

Hello,

I am trying to provide our users a way to change file/folder permissions
on public share on samba (3.0.28a) ROLE_STANDALONE server. ACL's are
working fine but the problem is to get list of users and groups on samba
server via Windows XP Professional (SP3).

When I open 'Select users or groups' dialog and pressing 'Find now'
button the Windows asks my Samba username/password pair. Why is that?
The share is already mounted, why I have to give my password again? That
is annoying but *real* problem is that I get user list very rarely.
Sometimes it works but usually it does not. One interesting point is
that I got user/group list every time if my samba password is different
than my windows password! Even though I have to give my
username/password every time.

I cant' be the only one trying to get this work but despite of that I
haven't found any help from documentation.


Best Regards,
Petteri
