[Samba] Creating samba shares from windows machine?

[Adam Williams]

have you put them in a unix group and then ran net groupmap add 
ntgroup="Domain Admins" unixgroup=whatever type=d or tried net -S DOMAIN 
-U root%password rpc rights grant "DOMAIN\Domain Admins" 
SeDiskOperatorPrivilege

then look on page 441 of Samba-3 By Example.pdf on how to use Computer 
Management snap in to get to the Shares.
