[Samba] Samba 4 AD share: Access denied

     That solution is for Windows 8. That also is not our issue. The 
WIndows 7 Pro 64bit workstations see the server and shares, and they map 
the shares according to group policy, but then everybody gets access 
denied, despite being in the domain groups for which the shares were 
created. Funny thing is that if I logon as domain admin, I get to access 
the shares. Due to this, I fully believe the S4 server is ignoring or 
not accounting for group membership. The "reachfp" account is the domain 
admin. This is also the default owner of files on the shares. The group 
"administration" contains many members and does not grant access, 
despite the group being granted full control. This lead e into believing 
I am still dealing with a permissions issue and not another issue. If it 
was the other issue, I would assume domain admin could not see the share 
or access it. Is that about right?
