[Samba] domain users in local groups

[bkrusic at yahoo.com]

According to the docs of v2.2.7, domain groups are not
supported at this time.

What I've done and my env btw is;

Samba PDC
Samba file servers
XP/2K/Linux/MacOSX clients

Created some groups in /etc/group and assigned users 
in /etc/passwd to the appropriate groups.

Then in my smb.conf file I have;

under [share]

force dir mode = ###
force create mode = ###

and the according group/user ownership on the dir of
the file server (some shell scripting to further
modify the perms as needed for finer garnular perms).

Make sure your /etc/{passwd,group} files are in snyc.

I will play with windbind and ACLs in the future but
the above was a simple implementation.
