+<description>
+ <para> The default behavior in Samba is to provide
+ UNIX-like behavior where only the owner of a file/directory is
+ able to change the permissions on it. However, this behavior
+ is often confusing to DOS/Windows users. Enabling this parameter
+ allows a user who has write access to the file (by whatever
+ means) to modify the permissions (including ACL) on it. Note that a user
+ belonging to the group owning the file will not be allowed to
+ change permissions if the group is only granted read access.
+ Ownership of the file/directory may also be changed.</para>
