Hi list, maybe somebody had the same problem when upgrading to samba3. We have a Debian Sarge server running Samba3 without winbind. We used the old 2.2.x smb.conf and smbpasswd for the new installation. Problem 1: Since the migration some users can not write to their respective group shares (NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED), when the directory is not owned by them. It looks like the groups are not resolved properly. Problem 2: Since thursday last week this effect is cumulating, it looks as if our samba installation were slowly degrading. Can anybody out there give some advise? THX in Advance Wolfgang
