[PLUG] Problems with permissions and group membership...I thnik

[sothisistheinternet]

more information:

The only areas where my group's users cannot go are /sambadirectory (the
problem), /root, and /lost+found (I'm using Nautilus).

/sambadirectory is a separate drive mounted in fstab as /sambadirectory, if
that's of any consequence...
