Ah, I see what you mean now by "following" the group. I have a setup here where although the groups are pulled from Active Directory, Samba still "follows" the groups - i.e. the group permissions are honoured for any user belonging to that group, whether it's their primary group or not. Given that you couldn't run "net status ..." before, what version of Samba are you running? My only guess now is that perhaps it's an older version (I'm running 3.0.20) It is strange though, that logging on with smbclient as the same user would allow you to delete the file - if this is the case I'd start looking at the Windows side of things, because it's unlikely to be Samba at fault if smbclient works. If you right-click on a folder, choose Properties, click Advanced and then go to the Effective Permissions tab, what are the permissions listed as for some of the users? Note that I think write access is required to delete files, since when I do this the "Delete access" checkbox is unticked, yet I can still delete files.
