I just simulated your scenario and I have no problems.
1) User testing member of: group1 2) group1 member of group 2 3) group2 has rights to folderA 4) User testing can successfully open folderA. 5) Removing group2 rights from folderA results in access denied. James A. Dinkel wrote:
Here's the situation: We have users who are members of groups and those groups are sometimes members of a 2nd level of groups. If a folder has permissions assigned to a 2nd level group, then the user can not access the share. Doing a "getent group | grep user | grep 2nd_level_group" also returns nothing. Samba seems to not be recognizing that a user is a member of a group under another group. Is there any way to enable Samba, or Winbind, to follow down the group hierarchy? James Dinkel
