Hi, thanks very much for your feeback.

I now have it working in my Virtualbox lab and will make the changes in production shortly.

The trick was to rely on kerberos only thanks for the winbind tip, it was confusing me horribly. I disabled winbind and did more testing, now anyone who has authenticated to AD, and is in a local linux group for the share can connect.

Thanks again,
Steve.

i am not the best expert the mailing list has to offer, but i think when you are using ad and winbind you need group information locally and in ad + mapping between ad and local groups - otherwise you will step into various problems. alternatives are (1) switching off winbind (then samba falls back to local group information only) or (2) administer your local groups via ad rfc2307 schema extension + winbind + nsswitch.
