That says "force the group membership to the user's
primary group" which is pointless.  Not sure what you
are trying to do.  If you are runnign winbindd (assuming
so), then just add "domain users" the acl permissions?
Or some other domain group that you want.

Suppress what?

You always get the most restrictive permission set
between smb.conf, share permissions, and file system permissions.
