That works for me all day long.

And it was more in reference to your first post:

You can simplify as I show, you don't need a "write list" and a "read=20
list". If you make a share "read only" then it is read only by default,=20
yet those on the "write list" will have write privileges. The less=20
complicated, the easier to read and troubleshoot.

It looks to me like you have multiple smb.conf files and you're editing=20
the one the system is not using. Your last testparm still shows=20
a "force group" parameter but there is none listed in your share=20
definition. Also "available" is on by default, one less parameter you=20
can drop to make it all more readable.

=2D-=20
