[Samba] Permission Issues with GPO

[L.P.H. van Belle]

Let me guess. 

You accessing your server like : 

\\servername\netlogon 
of 
\\servername\sysvol   

Well thats protected by windows these these days. 

Try with 

\\servername.domain.tld\netlogon 
or 
\\servername.domain.tld\sysvol  

Does that work? Yes, 

There is a whole chaper of this on the list somewhere..  
Best is to read howto override this. 
https://adsecurity.org/?p=1405 

and for you member server, how is you share setup. 
did you remove "authenticated users" ? 
if so best is that you add "domain computer" or authenticated users back.
And if you did not remove "authenticated users" from the share.
 
Please post your share setup and rights for the shared folder. 
AND the rights of the folder below the shared folder. 


Greetz, 

Louis
