Hello Tom,
just came across your message when trying to find a solution for another problem... As far as I know 'net groupmap' never makes group members to show up in /etc/group. It just does a group mapping from UNIX world to SMB world. And this is what is mainly covered in the Samba docs. What you need imho is the other way around - somehow mapping SMB-groups into UNIX-groups. Here is my suggestion: 1. Map the group 'wheel' to a _local_ SMB-group using 'net groupmap ...' as you already tried. 2. Create a _global_ group in your NT domain containing your intended 'wheel' members. 3. Make the global group from step 2.) become a member of the local group from step in 1.) using 'net group ADD ...'. Don't worry what old Samba docs say, from a certain version on (tested it with v3.0.13) encapsulated group membership works. 4. Make sure winbindd is running on your Samba machine. This daemon is responsible for the group mapping. Explanation: The users also don't show up in /etc/group but the group membership is solved on the fly by winbindd. I found the details in the recent Samba-3-Howto on samba.org.
