[Samba] Does "Admin Users =" accept groups?

[Kit Gerrits]

As I recall, there are 2 things to bear in mind:

1/
Samba 3.0 has dropped the admin users= setting. There is only one true
domain administrator: root.

2/
Also, Samba now uses NT Groups the way it is supposed to, with SID and all.
More info can be found by looking up the 'net groupmap' command.

If you map the default NT group Domain Administrators, you can do admin
users the official way.
Also, you'll notice that the number of errors about groups in the samba log
falls considerably ;-)


Good luck!

man smb.conf does not specifically say admin users supports @groupname
syntax. Google turns up lots of examples of it being used, but everyone
hanging their smb.conf's up to air does not mean they are 100% accurate
either.

Here, Samba 3.0.4 in PDC mode, I can not get it to accept the name of a
group in /etc/group, user ID's only.
