No way! I've tried to change my configuration to the following:

[LABORATORIO_SMB]
comment = Cartella privata Laboratorio
path = /mnt/samba/lab_smb
browsable = yes
available = yes
valid users = @laboratorio, @estero, luca.ferrari
write list = @laboratorio
read list = @estero, luca.ferrari
writable = yes

but the testparm still says:

[LABORATORIO_SMB]
comment = Cartella Laboratorio Sassuolo
path = /mnt/samba/laboratorio_smb
valid users = @laboratorio
read list = @estero, luca.ferrari
write list = @laboratorio
force group = laboratorio
read only = No

so the valid users property is not changed, and in fact I'm not able to log in
to the share with an account not belonging to the laboratorio group.
Is there something I can check or do to get rid of this problem?

Thanks,
Luca

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
list". If you make a share "read only" then it is read only by default,
yet those on the "write list" will have write privileges. The less
complicated, the easier to read and troubleshoot.

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

I found the problem....you were almost right, except it was not another
smb.conf file, but the same share defined twice in the file. Removed one of
the definiton and now everything works!

Thanks,
