The problem is, that your Samba version apparently screws up the inode information and we have re-enabled using the inode numbers sent from remote file systems which are supposed to be capable of that. For this we use the HAS_PERSISTENT_ACLS property. What Samba version is your Mac OS X using? I'm using 3.0.20a for which the inode information is useable. Is Samba a part of the OS packages or did you install it from an external source? Is it a rather old one? Can you upgrade? The problem is that there's no way for us to distinguish between a newer and an older version of Samba. I would rather not lose the inode information when available.
