Network Admin can not upload file

We have a network admin that can not upload via FILR to a Net Folder. He has full rights rights to the folder in AD. We have given him rights in FILR. What could cause this?

The only thing I can think is, he is part of two AD groups. One group restricts his ability to to right to the folder. The admin group he is part of, gives him full access to the folder. Could this be causing the issue?

Thanks

    If you are talking about the admin user, they use the proxy user account to access files.

    If you are talking about an LDAP user are the groups used to asign rights imported into Filr?

    OK, I have the solution. The current AD domain was created a few years ago when they merged 14 different domains into one. After the migration the d3admins group had a new SID with the new domain. But it also had its old SID in the sidhistory. The CIFS server was using the d3admins sid from the sidhistory. Mapped drives worked, because the workstation also referenced the sidhistory to match the group d3admins. But FILR is only looking at the objectSid to reference the group D3admins. For now we will use a new group, so it will have a SID FILR will be able to reference. I have opened a ticket to see if we can get FILR to also look at the SIDHistory when referencing users and groups.
