[K12OSN] Another Samba issue - A little more info.

[Mark Cockrell]

I've been tinkering with this Samba problem as time permits and I've 
made a few discoveries that may help someone help me.  Using a specific 
situation:

A user "tdbryant" moved from middle school to high school.  At the 
beginning of the year I moved him out of the "ms" group and into the 
"hs" group.  Now User Manager shows him as being in the "ms" group and 
not a member of the "hs" group.  Somehow he reverted.  If I run "#  
/opt/IDEALX/sbin/smbldap-groupmod -m tdbryant hs"  I get the error  
"User tdbryant is already in the group."  If I look him up in Webmin, 
he's in the "hs" group and not in the "ms" group.  But, when he tries to 
access a Samba share that is set to allow access only by "hs" group 
members, he is denied access.  So, it seems that LDAP knows he's there, 
but Samba doesn't. 

Does this help?  I'm at a loss here.
