That makes sense, I recall reading that unix extensions (or something
that has to do with that setting) for the etch version of samba was
broken (it also explains some errors I'd get when doing certain file
operations). I disabled "unix extensions" with version 2:3.2.5-4lenny2
and sure enough, it works.

Thanks for your help and sorry for wasting your time,
