It works fine but I still get some errors about groups and I can't find the answers in the mailing list log: Let's explain the error: When I connect with a W2k client it works fine, but then if I try to add extra permissions to a file it complains

Hi everybody! I had a problem (now solved) with the UIDs and GIDs assigned to my SMB filesystem once mounted.
