Perhaps:
chgrp ll_main/rhmps /u01/test
chmod 775 /u01/test
valid users = @ll_main/rhmps

Hi all,



I've configured a system to authenticate with an AD 2k3 domain (all
domain controllers have SP1) using winbind.  I have joined the server
to
the domain as well. I created some shares to work with AD groups.
Here's a quick snippet of a share from my smb.conf file:



[test]

        comment = test share for winbind testing

        path = /u01/test

        write list = @ll_main/rhmps



The problem I have is if I tell the write list command to use an
existing AD group which I am already a member of, I can write to the
share.  If on the other hand, I create a new AD group, add my user
account to the group, then tell the write list to use the new group, I
cannot write to the share.  I have rebooted my test workstations,
tried
writing to the share from multiple XP (SP2), workstations logged
out/in,
and rebooted my smb server.  Nothing seems to help and I'm not seeing
anything in any logs to explain the problem.



Any help would be greatly appreciated.  If I can get it to work, I
plan
to put this into production.  Do you think it would be wise?  



My samba server is a redat 3.0 box with update 5.  The samba version
is
samba-3.0.9-1.3E.5



Thanks in advance for the help.



Michael
