Samba issues - Any one see anything odd

[William Muriithi]

Hi pals,

I am having a problem with samba that I have not been able to overcome
and I wonder if a fresh pair of eyes would find what I am missing.
Would really appreciate any suggestion.

We have samba authenticating users through openLDAP running in a
separate boxes. OpenLDAP is setup with  samba.schema schema and all
have been running fine.  I added a new share today and restarted samba
but have  not been able to use it.  I get permission related error
when I attempt to connect to the share. Below is how the share looks
like:

[Facility]
path = /media/storage/facility
read only = no
guest ok = no
printable = no
comment = For facility usage
create mask = 0770
directory mask = 0770
force create mode = 0770
force directory mode = 0770
writable = yes
browsable = yes
#force group = facility
#valid users = @facility
force group = facility
valid users = @facility

Below is how the file system looks like:

samba:~# ls -al /media/shares/facility/
total 4
drwxrws---  2 root facility  32 2011-10-07 09:12 .
drwxr-xr-x 17 root root     456 2011-10-04 10:33 ..
-rw-rwSr--  1 root facility  83 2011-10-07 09:12 William_testing.txt

samba:~# mount
/dev/sdak1 on /media/shares/facility type xfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,_netdev)

When I attempt to connect to the share, these is what openLDAP dump on the logs

On the file server running Samba version 3.2.5, below are the
corresponding logs when I attempted to connect to the share

Oct 26 19:02:59 samba smbd_audit[16126]: connect to service Facility
by user william
Oct 26 19:02:59 samba smbd_audit[16126]: opendir ./
Oct 26 19:02:59 samba smbd_audit[16126]: disconnected
Oct 26 19:02:59 samba smbd_audit[16126]: opendir ./

Anyone notice anything I may be overlooking somewhere?
