I tried more things. I found that adding users made them member of a

If I remove the extra groups, leaving just the primary group of the  new

on OK, this error message is gone.


So is this a problem on the Linux side? You are trying to add a user to several groups and one or more of the groups does not exist. When you add a user in samba, it creates the Linux user using the defaults in /etc/default/useradd... so you get the error message.

grep through /etc/group and see if the groups in fact exist. If they do not, either change /etc/default/useradd, or create the necessary groups with /usr/sbin/groupadd
No, all the groups in /etc/default/useradd do exist.
I'm going to install 3.0.20b, and start from scratch. I'll keep in touch.
