In smb.conf I have the line

valid users = @Staff @Directors

Is this a valid syntax to add two groups to the valid users line? It does not seem to work right on our xp pro clients.

If not which of the following is the proper way (if any) to make two groups valid users of this network drive?

Which is proper for windows clients?

valid users = +Staff +Directors

Or do I need to use the &

valid users = &Staff &Directors

Or some combo of the two?

valid users = &+Staff &+Directors
valid users = +&Staff +&Directors
