if "private" is a group, you have to add @ in front of the "valid users" entry. according to a post of jerry the syntax with ticks and spaces is correct.

please also increase the debug level on the server side to see why it fails

could you please try the latest samba (or at least 3.0.23c) and use
valid users = "Unix Group"\your_local_group

This does not change very much:

| [Server B]
| # smbd -V
| Version 3.0.23c-2
| # cat /etc/samba/smb.conf |grep "valid users"
| valid users = "Unix Group"\private | | [Client]

| Password: | Domain=[DOMAIN] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.0.23c-2]
| tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED

Is the syntax correct, i.e. "Unix Group" has to be written as is and in
quotes?

Server B is not under my control, but I _could_ trigger an update to
3.023d if there is a somewhat realistic chance this would help. The
release notes say:

| * Fix primary group lookup failures. Use the Get_Pwnam_alloc() | call to ensure it finds the Unix user first.

Could this be an issue here?
