Yes but the problem is that the NT acls in ASU/Cascade are stored in a sparse database which (I believe) has no real relation to the UNIX permissions actually stored in the file system meta-info. This works great if all you're doing is serving files to NT clients, but isn't so good if you've actually got a multi-protocol environment where UNIX users need access also.

Cheers,
