If the user logs into the *nix box with the same username that they
use in windows can they write to the folders?

Do you have SELinux active?

Try using the default flag for setfacl. I always have this problem with setfacl:

$ setfacl -m g:students:rwx foo

doesn't work, but I have better luck with

$ setfacl -d -m g:students:rwx foo

I don't know why, it seems like it should work with the first setup but it rarely does for me.

And if THAT doesn't work, I connect to the share as an admin Windows user (administrator in your case) and set the ACLs using Windows Explorer.

What happens if you try to mount a samba share via CIFS from linux (e.g.
smbclient, mount -o cifs ?) Or may be mount the drive in windows with
the "net use" command. Either way you explicitly set the domain/username.

Do any of the other log files refer to issues with mapping users?

What is the Host OS? Guessing some linux varient?

The culprit was selinux.

Thanks for everyone's help!
