Not sure what you are asking about, but if you run

	$ ls -dl dir; getfacl dir; icacls dir
	$ ls -dl dir/file; getfacl dir/file; icacls dir/file

you can see how POSIX perms get translated into POSIX ACLs and implemented as
Windows ACLs.

If anything appears complex or inconsistent, try running setfacl -b on dirs or
files then reapply chmod perms and recheck with the above.
