I currently have samba-2.2.7-3.7.3 running on a Redhat 7.3 machine. I have a share setup called Share1 and within this share are numerous directories which are accessible by all authenticated Windows NT server clients. My question is: I have one user out of 100 employees that should be able to access some of the directories within Share1 but NOT other directories. Is there a way to limit access to certain directories within this public Share and allow for access to other directories within this public share? If so please provide a descriptive answer. I'm under the impression I could create a group with all 99 employees and chgrp the directories only they can access (thus denying access to the one employee) but this seems like an administrative nightmare. I realize I could deny access to this public share using this employees' host name but is there a smb.conf entry in the share definition secton that would allow access to other directories in the share? Or am I totally on the wrong track? Thank You
