What is your "security=" in the globals?

I've done a lot of this. Group shares generally work just fine. Heck as
long ago as 8 years ago I had this working for a large company with each
branch having their own shared folder areas. The folks didn't even know
that it was a Linux box running samba that they were attaching to.

Why don't you post your config.

To: Triangle Linux Users Group discussion list <[email protected]>

Had anyone tried to set up a Samba share in the following manner:

/data1 (shared to all employees. used as a general place where everyone can
dump files)
/data1/marketing  (where only employees that are defined in the group
marketing (in /etc/groups) can access the share?)

This seems it should be possible. However this was tried in practice users defined in the /etc/groups group for marketing will lose connectivity to the
/data1/marketing share occasionally.  Does anyone have a restrictive
directory shared from within a general access shared directory working
properly?

Would it be easier to just define the users instead of using groups (likethe following example)?

[marketing]
 comment = Marketing
 path = /data1/marketing
 valid users = mary fred
 public = no
 writable = yes
 printable = no
 create mask = 0765
