[Samba] Domain Admins

[Golden Butler]

Yes!  That was it.  Thanks a lot.

But now I'm curious.  So if I wanted to map my unix "users" group to "Domain Users", what rid would I use, or does it matter?

- Delamatrix

I think you may need to check the rid you have used for the Domain 
Admins group. According to 
http://us3.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/groupmapping.html 
this is one of the well known rids which must be maintained for correct 
functioning of the NT groups systems. You have a rid of 7033 and I think 
it should be 512.
