Hi all!

Here's the problem we have since patching Monday night. Tuesday morning Samba wasn't running, but started fine, and everything seemed to be working.

Were currently running samba3.0.24-2.23 and I believe before the patch we were running samba3.0.22-13.30.

We have some samba shares where we have subgroups that only a select group of people of the parent group are allowed to access. For example:

The parent folder will be accessible to groupa with 770 permissions.

In the folder we will have a subfolder accessible to groupb only, also with 770. (members of groupb belong to groupa)

The smb.conf for the giving share looks like this

[share]
       path = /usr/local/share/groups/share
       valid users = @groupa
       admin users = @smbadmin
      force group = groupa
       create mask = 0770
       directory mask = 0770

And these settings always worked fine. Groupb users would be able to access their subfolder with no problems. Since the night the patch was installed, this no longer happens. In windows the user is getting the error message "M:\subfolder is not accessible. Access is Denied".

I've been double and triple checking all the permission and group memberships (all handled locally on the server), etc and everything looks fine. I've also been looking in the samba logs and not seeing relating to the error.

I would appreciate any help/advice!
Matt.
