So perhaps you can explain why setting "acl" isn't the solution here?
Unfortunately, acl mode is unusable in a non-domain environment as all
the files have ownership/permissions relative to the server user/group
rather than the client workstation user/group.
Reference this mailing list discussion back in 2000:

It appears this discussion is actually what led Corinna to add the
smbntsec mount option. The issues are summarized well in this mail
from Charles Wilson:
