When did this stop working, and exactly what error message are you
seeing?

Samba stopped working *before* I deleted and recreated the group, that's why I did it.
# rpm -q fedora-release
# rpm -qa|grep samba
# grep samba /var/log/yum*

Which I've done. Any other ideas?
The @group is not working in fc6's current version.
smb.conf:
A name starting with a '@' is interpreted as an NIS netgroup first (if your system supports NIS), and then as a UNIX group if the name was not found in the NIS netgroup database.

But there is a weird thing with nis where it is failing, and hence never giving smb useful results.

You can
- in /etc/samba/smb/conf change the @ to + {look in unix groups first}
or
- in /etc/nsswitch.conf set netgroup:  files  {which worked for me}

There is some similar bugs such as
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3741
but their resolution is noted as 3.0.23b, and fc6 uses 3.0.23c
