This isn't a Red Hat problem - I do this all the time. This is a
configuration problem.
getent group #does it list the groups in /etc/group first and then
#the groups in LDAP?
chmod problems? are you trying to change the mount? The mount is owned
by whomever made the mount
just to show you that it works on samba...
[EMAIL PROTECTED] samba]# mkdir test
[EMAIL PROTECTED] samba]# chown "Craig White"."Domain Users" test
[EMAIL PROTECTED] samba]# ls -l
total 14
<data snipped for clarity>
drwxr-xr-x 2 Craig White Domain Users 4096 Jan 9 14:13 test
[EMAIL PROTECTED] samba]# grep "Craig White" /etc/passwd
