[Samba] Problem with Home folders

Hello everyone. I'm finally putting together a new AD-DC at work. My
main DC is a Windows Server 2019. I have another server with Arch and
Samba and it's joined to the domain as a member. I'm trying to get
Users home directories working properly. I followed the guide at
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Windows_User_Home_Folders and things
where going well. When I changed a users profile to have the home dir,
the directory would show up. When I logged in as that user it was hit
or miss as to whether I could access that folder. Some folders are
accessible by everyone. It's just not consistent in what permissions it
applies to the directory.
My share in smb.conf is:
[Users]
comment = Private User Files
path = /UserData/Users
vfs objects = shadow_copy2
shadow:basedir=/Userdata/Users
shadow:format = @GMT_%Y.%m.%d-%H.%M.%S
shadow:sort = desc
shadow:snapdir = /UserData/.Userssnapshots
shadow:localtime=yes
writable = yes
force create mode = 0600
force directory mode = 0700
printable = no
One of the directories looks like this:
0 drwxrws---+ 1 mdadmin domain users 0 Jan 21 09:39 dcampbell
Windows permissions:
Allow - MD Admin - Full Control
Allow - Everyone - None
Allow - Domain Users - Full Control
Inheritance is enabled.
I've tried disabling inheritance and it just switches back. I've tried
adding users and groups and they disappear when I clock apply.
But then on other directories everything works fine and I can add/remove
users.
I'm kinda at a loss as to why this might be happening. Thanks for the help.
