users.map file

In our users.map file we have the following entries:
 
    unix1 = nt1
    unix2 = nt2
    unix3 = @unixgroup3
    unix4 = @unixgroup4
 
When we create shares on the samba server, we assign the valid users as
@unixgroup3 or @unixgroup4.  For whatever reason, if a share has @unixgroup4
as the valid users entry, we cannot connect to it from the nt side.  If we
flip-flop the group entries in the users.map file, we can then connect to
that share, but not the share with @unixgroup3.  whatever group is first in
the users.map file works, and the groups after that do not.  
 
Does anyone know why this happens?  Is this the way the file behaves by
default?
