[Samba] Samba 4 Domain Member fileserver permission denied error

[Chris Alavoine]

Hi Lorenzo,

Many thanks for this. I had most of the GID/UID stuff already in place (for
NSLCD), but the chowning and chmoding part is what fixed it for me. Had to
use chmod 770 to get it working though, but many thanks for the top tips! I
can now get down to fully testing this is a viable fileserver option.

Cheers,
c:)
