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.

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?
