| [print$]

| path = /etc/samba/drivers
| write list = root, '@TEST.COM\Domain Admins',
| @TEST.COM\DEP_ADMIN_GERMANY
| force user = root
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
| guest ok = Yes

please see the patch attached to bug 1319 (as of yesterday) and
try it out.  The bug is actually an interaction between
'force user' adn 'write list'





cheers, jerry
