    Anders probably has guessed the problem right, that it is an NTFS tree and so
    the Unix permissions seen by ls -al or SecureShare Access in Explorer will be
    derived permissions and not "real" unix permissions. SecureShare Access has a
    checkbox that tells you whether a file has an ACL or not.

    In any case, I assume you have opened a call with NetApp support, as they will
    be able to take you through the solution.

    Regards,
    Andrew
