Cannot find local groups in Windows permissions settings on shared CIFS folders

Hi.

I've got a shared folder being a zfs dataset.
On the N4F 10.xx machine I've created users Bobby and Mike and groups ForRW and ForReadOnly.

When I try to set Security permissions on the shared folder from a Windows machine I can only add the users. The groups are not found in the list. It only shows the standard built-in groups like Everyone, creator etc.

Am I missing something here?

Tried with the same pool on N4F 9.xx, same thing.

It worked with same pool on FreeNAS 9.xx..

The created users are shown as "Servername\Bobby" when added, but group wheel as set as default permisson shown as "Unix group\Wheel".
