[Samba] Understanding Samba net commands

[Stanley Tim]

I am using Samba 3.0.4 on RedHat 9. This server is a member server in an NT
domain. Everything is working find.

I'm trying to better understand the use of the net groupmap commands.
Mapping the groups on Samba seem to have no affect with the rest of my
domain. For example, the account that is an administrator in the NT domain
has no permissions in Samba.

I use wbinfo -u to list the users.
I create a unix group and add the user with administrator priviledge to that
unix group.
I then net groupmap ntgroup="Domain Admins" unixgroup=domadm
I then chown root:domadm to the shared directory

However, I cannot access that directory via samba.

I'm not sure if I'm missing something, or if I'm just not understanding the
purpose of Net Groupmaps.

Thank you
