Just to clarify, in Samba 3.0 we taking the position that
winbind users/groups in smb.conf must always be full
qualified.  So things like

	write list = +'Domain Admins'

will not work if what you really meant was

	write list = +'FOO\Domain Admins'

And the issue with secondary groups and 'winbind use default domain =
yes' is actually

	https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=406

which has been fixed.



cheers, jerry
