I've set up a samba 2.0.5a / RedHat 6.1 file server. It's all going
fine, but for a minor issue that is irritating rather than critical. I
have directories for each dept, and then sub-dirs for users, with a dept
share dir in each dept dir. I can set the valid users to individual
users for the shared directories but some of the depts have 25 - 30
people and so I'd like to use groups but I don't seem able to set the
valid users setting in smb.conf to groups. Using @ or + in front of the
group name won't allow anyone in and it keeps asking for the corect
password. Can anyone help?
