It's easiest to tell samba to allow everyone access to the share, and use ACL's on the Linux filesystem to restrict access.

Therefore if have added the Samba server to the domain without problem and created a share like this: [bild] comment = Some Comment path = /data/bild admin users = root force user = smbuser force group = sambashare valid users = DOMAIN\w-user1 @DOMAIN\w-group1 guest ok = no read only = no writeable = yes browseable = yes The windows domain user "w-user1" work as it should, but no member of the windows group "w-group1" can access the share. If have also tried mapping the windows group to the Unix group "sambashare" with "username map" but always get access denied eg. asked for a windows user. Can please someone give a hint how to grant access for a windows group without adding/removing the members to a Unix group?
