Permissions Issue with Nested and/or local Groups

We have a file share on machine1. Machine1 has a local group, share_read, that contains a domain group share_readers and share_readers has a list of individuals with access to the share. From Windows access is fine. In Cygwin, ls -l is showing no access to the files for the users. Adding the domain group directly to the share solves the problem. I'm even able to duplicate this behavior locally on my machine with a group and a folder local to the machine, so it's not the fact that it's a network share. And adding my domain account directly to the local group does not work either. So it appears the culprit might be the local group. Any thoughts?
Thanks In Advance,
Dave
