[Samba] force group does not work

I couldn't get "valid users = @group" ‎to work at all, but that was on a DC and I figured it was just not supported yet. Is that happening on a non-DC?

Subject: [Samba] force group does not work

Hi

I set up a samba 4.1.4 server on the latest FreeBSD RELEASE 10. 
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to consider the option force group. After 
hours ofresearch I couldn't figure out what I'm still missing. unix 
extensions is set to no. Setting the debug level up to 10 also didn't 
help ;(
Is this a bug or is there simply a mistake in my setup?

When
*valid users = @Groupname*
is set, then I don't have access to the share at all anymore.

As funny as it sounds, but
*force user* **= *MyUsername*
is working as expected.


id -Gn MyUsername
MyUsername Groupname

getent group Groupname
Groupname:*:2004:MyUsername,Groupname


# ============= Global ============= #

[global]

# Basic server settings

netbios name = FILESERVER

# Password backend

# Default masks

force create mode = 0770
directory mask = 0770
force directory mode = 0770

# Miscellaneous
veto oplock files = /*.doc/*.xls/*.ppt/*.mdb/*.docx/*.xlsx/*.ppt


# ============= Shares ============= #

[MyShare]
comment = NAS
path = /mnt/MyShare
guest ok = No
read only = No
valid users = @Groupname
forece user = MyUsername
force group = Groupname







Any help would be greatly appreciated ;)

Best Regards
