      I can mapped to the ETC folder, but unable to view/change the contents.  Get
'access denied'.

The key is to be in the Local Adminstrators group.  When you
changed domains, perhaps this wasn't updated.  Try taking a peek
at the filer etc\lclgroups.cfg on the filer and look at the SIDs
under the Administrators group.  You can use the cifs lookup command
to decode the SIDs.  If the Domain Admins Group isn't there, fix it
by changing the SIDs.   BE VERY CAREFUL and have your old copy of this
file available either by copying it or having a known good copy in a 
snapshot because you want to be careful and be able to fall back.
In order to make CIFS see changes in this file, you must terminate and
restart cifs (at least it's quicker than a reboot).
Hope this helps.  You may want to consider calling NTAP to walk you
through it, but that's how I would approach it.

Subject: accessing local group
All,
I have a test F85 (ONTAP 6.2.2) in an NT4 Domain but I am unable to access
the local group on the filer.  The box was previously in W2K AD but was
moved to an NT4 domain.  The filer is listed in the domain.  I logged as
Domain Admin but still get 'access denied' when trying to access the filer's
local group.  Did 'cifs testdc' and it is authenticating to the correct DC.
Any suggestions is appreciated.
thanks,
Marcus Bui
