If I setup a share:

[TEST]
~ path = /tmp
~ valid users = "AD-nastest"

I can connect to the share as the user nastest just fine.

But if I put a group that nastest is a member of:


[TEST]
~ path = /tmp
~ valid users = "@AD+research-nastest"

It fails. I get this error in the logs:

[2005/07/08 16:32:25, 0] auth/auth_util.c:make_server_info_info3(1163)
~  make_server_info_info3: pdb_init_sam failed!

~  make_server_info_info3: pdb_init_sam failed!

The connection is being made the same way, with smbclient. The server is Windows
2003, and the version of Samba is 3.0.11.
