samba - Oct 2006 - AIX 5.2 Samba 3.0.23c Samba peculiarities

Hi All,

After successfully installing the AIX Binaries (Thanks Bill), and manageing
to join as a ADS Domain Member I have a couple of peculiarities of which I
need to get to the bottom.

Problem A

When connecting to a share, I can connect OK , and get authenticated OK, I
can create files in the share and open files in the share, but cannot list
files in the share or delete files I have created.

Additionally, our domain structure is as follows

Active Directory
YW.KELDA
CORP.YW.KELDA

NT4
YWS

The Samba machine is  a member of the CORP domain, and users from both CORP
and YWS can authenticate  against the SAMBA Share using winbind, but I
cannot authenticate from the YW domain ( which is where the majority of
users that will be useing the share are located).

What information should I supply to allow the investigation of these issues
