Hi Jerry,

the patch fixes the valid users problem for me. Or, to come back to 
the list of different syntaxes, these work:

        valid users = +users
        valid users = S-1-5-21-1540046517-542637695-1028676802-1201

These didn't work:

        valid users = +"Unix Group\users"
        valid users = +HOSTNAME\users
        valid users = +BUILTIN\users
        valid users = S-1-22-2-100

Thanks for the patch!

On a side note, 3.0.23 series fixed the "long delay/hang when 
accessing a samba share in explorer after a long pause" nuisance for 
me, thanks for this as well!

bye,
Franz.
