Why are you using 'net groupmap' and winbindd ?

As far as I could tell from the documentation on samba.org, that is the corect way to use both local and windows accounts. Give ownership of the directories to local accounts and groups. Use net groupmap to map the Windows groups name to UNIX groupnames. Winbind provides the glue to hold it together.

Home directories are owned by the UNIX account if it's local and by the Win account as mapped by winbindd(?) otherwise

This seems to works for all but this one share.

In any case, I think we have the 'valid users' and
tokens stuff straightened out for systems with an smbpasswd
file.  I'll be posting a patch shortly to being 3.0.23b
up to what is proposed to be the 3.0.23c code tree.
You might want to look at that.

I don't use smbpasswd. I have an smbusers file that maps local account to the equivalent Win account. For example my UNIX username is "stephen" but my Win name is "scarville" so I have the entry:

stephen = TOTALFLOOD\scarville

I have similar entries for each local accounts that will also use the samba services. Based on RT'ing the FM this looked like the right thing to do.

If I'm doing it wrong, then I'll happily switch to doing it right if someone can point me in that direction.
