Bug in Webmin Samba module prevents groups to be recognized

[localhorst]

In the Samba module for webmin, I was not able to grant rights to user groups, because the syntax stored in the module seems to be wrong.

Instead of saving a line like:
valid user = @group1,@group2,user1,user2

the Samba module saves:
valid users = @group1,@group2,user1,user2

to the smb.conf

This works for single users, but the groups will not be recognized.
This applies to:
Samba module samba-1.140-1
Webmin version 1.470
Samba server version 3.028
Ubuntu Server 8.04

In case you have difficulties to access your shares on the server, you might consider changing the line manually.

This might an issue for another webmin named project in Launchpad. Our project does minification of web resources such as JavaScript, CSS and HTML content.

Thanks, as there is no Launchpad poroject for the WEBMIN server admin tool, I will post this to the Webmin Wiki:
