Would that work? In this case: No, wouldn't work. But your response made me wade through smb.conf(5) again, specifically searching for "acl" and found: nt acl support = no to be the adequate solution after trying. With that, copying files doesn't add ACLs anymore. Sorry for bugging you and all the list members. Thank you for helping me think. :-) :wq! PoC
