I see. No real problem. It's only sad that TYPO3 mimicks the Unix way.
Unfortunately the "owner" is completely useless in TYPO3. If you make
one page only editable for a certain user, he may never go on vacation.
I played with the idea of replacing the "user" with the "primary group",
but it wasn't worth the troubles writing a patch.

Apache doesn't use any of the Windows ACLs. It works with it's own
access control whereas IIS naturally uses the Windows mechanism for that.
