I can't find anything in man smb.conf about  'domain group map ='.  Is this
something that got added in 2.04b?  	I suspect that the parameter that I
want is 'domain groups=' but I'm not sure because the man page says ask here
for information about it.  Anybody want to offer some advice?  Thanks,
	Greg
