If you are running SAMBA on cygwin this is not "Suse Linux". Samba 
relies on the ACL management of the os and the filesystem used.
Here, the filesystem is presumably NTFS and not SuSe linux. In NTFS, 
each node can be assigned permissions, similar to the linux way.
Samba sees these permissions and uses them. That is what Larry tried to 
point out. The SAMBA permissions set via the config are something still 
different on top of the OS /FS permissions. Or are you trying to say 
that you run the SSH onto a windows box which in turn has network drives 
mounted from a linux server?

HTH,
