Nobody seems to have noticed that the group is listed as "mkgroup-l-d".
This suggests that you need to set up /etc/groups properly by running 
the command:

  mkgroup -l > /etc/group

or more likely in this case (as it's a network share):

  mkgroup -d > /etc/group

For more information, "man mkgroup" and/or "man mkpasswd".

No charge, no guarantee.  (If it sorts out your problem, my insincere
apologies go to anyone who fancied making a quick buck!)
