It appears that share-info.tdb is not being properly updated.
To test I added a new share and it showed up in testparm with no error
but after restarting Samba nothing was added to share-info.tdb. None of
the .tdb files seem to have been updated in several months, which isn't
surprising since the Samba configuration of this server hasn't changed
in months.

I have two servers running Samba 3.2.3, one as a Domain Controller one
as a Member Server.
Both are running Ubuntu 8.10. smbd, nmbd and winbindd using the tdb
back end are running on both.
On the Member Server when I access the [Projects] share everything
works as expected. When I access the [Windows] share I get prompted
for a user name and password but no combination works
If I comment out the "force group" then [Windows] mostly works but not
there are issues with one application which will gives error
indication it cant create files.
I have begun looking in the various .tdb files and have found that
there is no entry for the [Windows] share in share_info.tdb

The question now is how do I add a record and why isn't it there?
I did discover that tdb-tools package was missing from this server (or
had been removed or disables). I had to add it back.
