[Samba] Two Permissions Issues: null session shares and group membership

I have Samba 3.0.25rc3 running on OpenSolaris build 67.  Samba is integrated
with our Active Directory via Kerberos.  I do not have nsswitch running with
winbind at this time.

Issue #1: Samba denies access to a share set up with "public = yes" when
accessed by an AD integrated user account.

The share is defined as follows:
[open]
        comment = Null Session Share
        path = /pool/open
        public = yes
        browseable = yes
        create mask = 0666
        directory mask = 0777
        guest account = nobody
        force user = nobody
        guest ok = yes

The directory is:
vault2:/pool#ls -al | grep open
drwxrwxrwx   2 nobody   sys            2 May  8 11:16 open
vault2:/pool#

When I connect to the share with a valid AD user account, I receive the
following message on the client: "The specified user does not exist."  The
log of the session on the server (snipped for brevity):

Is this failing because of the "sid_to_uid for nobody ... failed" message,
or some other problem?  Heck, maybe I'm just not setting the share up
correctly... :)

Issue #2: Unix users belonging to a unix group are denied access to a
directory/file, even though the unix user account is a member of the group.

Given the following file/account settings:

vault2:/pool/data#ls -al | grep example
drwxrwx---   2 nobody   group1        10 May  8 10:00 example
vault2:/pool/data#cat /etc/group | grep group1
group1::100:wcerich
vault2:/pool/data#

When I attach to the "data" share as wcerich, I do not have access to the
example directory, even though I am a member of unix group1 and the group
has full access to the directory.

Can anyone help me out with either of these two issues?

Eric
