Ok I am now on the brink of reinstalling as I have tried all I can think
of...

My samba now looks like this
------------------------------
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from UNKNOWN (0.0.0.0)
# Date: 2010/09/02 23:31:22

[global]
    workgroup = rsServer
    netbios name = rs0002
    server string = %h server (Samba, Ubuntu)
    bind interfaces only = Yes
    obey pam restrictions = Yes
    pam password change = Yes
    unix password sync = Yes
    log level = 1
    log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
    max log size = 1000
    preferred master = Yes
    domain master = Yes
    dns proxy = No
    wins support = Yes

[Music Store]
    inherit owner = Yes
    writeable = yes
    path = /data/NetworkShares/temp1
    force directory mode = 3777
    comment = Shared Music Area
    directory mask = 3777
    valid users = test1, at cAdmin
-----------------------------------

I have users:
cAdmin
test1

I have linux groups:
cAdmin

I have these lines in my groups file in /etc:
cAdmin:x:1000:cAdmin,test1
sambashare:x:122:cAdmin       -    I did not create this group (I think)

I have this on the shared folder:
drwxrwsrwt 2 cAdmin cAdmin 4096 2010-09-02 23:51 temp1

Now when I try to access my share \\192.168.2.3 from XP it popes up a log on
box
If I use cAdmin as user and the correct password then I see a list of Shares
(currently only the Music Store) I then can double click on the share and
have full access rights.
HOWEVER
If I use test1 as user and the correct password then I see a list of Shares
(currently only the Music Store) NOW if I double click on the share it state
that the share could not be accessed and that I might not have the correct
permissions...

This is now doing my head in!!
- The test1 user IS in the cAdmin group
- The folder belongs to the cAdmin user and cAdmin group AND allow anyone
else full access
- Valid users are test1 user AND cAdmin group

BUT only the cAdmin user can access the particular share even thought both
users can see the share
