[Samba] groupmap on member server

[Tim Jordan, Network Services]

I'm not an expert please correct me if I'm wrong.
With my shares I gave the unix group in question "itms_office"  group 
ownership.  So it looks like this:

drwxrwxrwx  root   itms_office  4096 Oct28 14:46 test

One thing to note is that my shares are not sub-directories like your 
are - so you may have to have the directories above "test" with the 
proper unix permissions.

My current problem is that the groups I have groupmapped seem to work, 
but I can't specify and valid domain user account and have it just let 
that user in the share....just can't seem to get it to work!

Give it a try and please let me know.
