[K12OSN] smbldap adjusting permissions from Windows - SOLVED!

[Rob Owens]

I was right-clicking on a folder within the share.  Are you saying that
attempts to change permissions on the whole share and not just that
folder?  If so, that would explain my problem (because my user wouldn't
have permission to change the whole share).  But it doesn't seem intuitive.
