You might be facing Samba Bug #1297, where the problem is that the
username map is unexpectedly consulted twice. The bug discussion also
includes a band-aid which worked for me, e.g. having in smbusers
!unixuser = ntuser
!unixuser = NTDOMAIN/unixuser
helps me to map ntuser into unixuser (in my case unixuser does not
exist as domain user; I guess the point would be moot otherwise).
You might have to put the two lines directly as shown, i.e. one
after another with nothing in between.
Hope this helps,
