I have a Debian Etch AMD64 server running Samba 3.0.24. It is joined to an active directory domain. Most everything works quite well. I had set up a user for a scanner but forgot to add it to a group so that it could access the target folder, so the scans failed. I then added the account to the group, but for some reason it is still denied access to the directory. I su'ed to the user, and they are unable to enter the directory. Every other member of the group is able to enter the directory without an issue, even members that were added afterwords. If I do a "getent group scanned docs", I can see all the users in the group including the scanner account. However if I issue the groups command as the copier user, the scanned docs group does not show up in the listing. The groups command returns the expected list with every other user. Any ideas?

I think 'grpconv' is the equivalent to 'pwconv' that gets people into /etc/passwd in the same way. Ryan Bair wrote:> I have a Debian Etch AMD64 server running Samba 3.0.24.
