I need help understanding what is happening and trouble shooting.

I have two servers running Samba 2.3.3, one as a Domain Controller one as a Member Server. Both are running Ubuntu 8.10. smbd, nmbd and winbindd using the tdb back end are running on both.

I have two shares on the member server and as far as I can tell they are identical. [Projects] works as expected but [Windows] always asks for a login name even though the smb.conf entries for both are are the same. If I comment out the "force group" in [Windows] users can access the share but there are errors writing and creating files. If I create a new share it acts as the [Windows] share.

Here are the share definitions and a list of the files in the directory;

[Projects]
       Comment = Project Files
       path = /files/Lucretia/Projects
       writeable = yes
       browseable = yes
       create mask = 0764
       directory mask = 0775
       force group = "ATLANTA\domain users"

[Windows]
       comment = Atlanta Windows Files
       path = /files/Lucretia/Windows
       browseable = yes
       writeable = yes
       create mask = 0764
       directory mask = 0775
       force group = "ATLANTA\domain users"


r...@louise:/files/Lucretia# ls -l
total 66
drwxrwsr-x   2 root          10001    48 2008-07-17 03:17 Arris

Testparm shows no problems although it does rearrange the share definitions somewhat.

The problem must be in windows permissions but I don't know how to check them, especially since I have only ssh access because the site is remote. I have to rely on local users for testing.

How can I get a list of ATLANTA\domain admin group users?

How can I change the permissions?
