Since you and I are using the same version of Ubuntu and both have our
servers integrated into Active Directory, you would expect similar
behavior configurations notwithstanding. As we've discussed earlier, I
have no problems with nested groups. I think you're barking up the wrong
tree thinking upgrading will solver your problem. I'm unconvinced.
Out of curiosity, do you have any explicit group denial settings on the
target folder that the user in question might have membership? I believe
denies overrule grants, but I'm not positive.

Ubuntu (Edgy Eft) seems to be stuck at 3.0.22. Which is one of the
reasons
I
elected not to move to Ubuntu servers - when I first examined the
possibility
they were stuck on 3.0.14 for the longest time. Also CUPS, the other
major
component I need for supporting Windows clients, on Ubuntu is stuck at
1.2.4,
whereas I run 1.2.7 on Gentoo.
Do the Sarge releases from the Samba team work properly with this (or
any)
version of Ubuntu?

Ubuntu, and Debian, will always be "stuck" at the version included at
the time of release. This is by design, so "breakage" is not
introduced, but it does still get security and bug fixes. Just FYI.
I'm having a problem with "nested groups" (you may have noticed on this
mailing list) and I'm also wondering if updating to the latest Samba and
Winbind would take care of my issue.
Backporting from a newer distro such as Feisty for Ubuntu, or Etch for
Debian, would be one way to manually get the newer packages. I believe
there is a tool to make backporting easy on Ubuntu, I'm not sure I would
trust this approach though.
