OK, this probably happened during a reasonably sloppy install - I didn't quite know all the details (this is not to say that I know them now!). I had a standard SuSE 7.3 setup with Samba 2.2.7a and decided to compile 3.0 and install it in the default directories. So there were a few attempts at starting the new version with no to poor results before I finally found all the files (I think so, anyway) that needed to be copied from the default SuSE directories to the default 3.0 directories. > To correct this, stop Samba, delete the group_mapping.tdb file. > Then restart Samba and do not forget to map your Domain groups to valid > UNIX groups.

A possibility but I will pass on that for now as I don't fully know the ramifications of adding a user to the root group in Linux (but would certainly like to know).
