Domain admins

I'm new to NT and have set up a set up a NT PDC using a version 2.1.0-prealpha
of Samba downloaded in September 99 and running on Solaris 7.

I am trying to put users into a Domain Admins group using the information in
the FAQ.

What I have is:

fibratus#ypcat group |grep nt
ntadmin:*:4219:mike,bc,cnd,ann
automnt:*:31530:
ntusers:*:4220:mike,bc,cnd,ann

fibratus#grep domain smb.conf
   workgroup = met-domain
   domain group map = /usr/local/samba/lib/domaingroup.map
   domain master = yes
   domain logons = yes

fibratus#cat /usr/local/samba/lib/domaingroup.map
ntadmin="Domain Admins"
ntusers="Domain Users"

fibratus#grep group /etc/nsswitch.conf
# the following two lines obviate the "+" entry in /etc/passwd and /etc/group.
group:      files nis
netgroup:   nis

When logging onto a PC as mike in the domain met-domain, mike does not have 
administrator privilegs. The samba logs do not appear to have anything that 
sheds any light on the matter.

Does anyone know what the problem might be or what I can do to trace the cause
of the problem?

Best wishes,

Mike
