Debian Etch with Samba 3.0.24 and slapd I'm trying to get my head around how to set up the directory structure of the files server and just looking to be pointed in the right direction. Basically I'm trying to move the directory structure and setup the same network shares and permissions from a novell server/suse-9.0 server. I'm just not sure how to get the same from Samba. Basically a user has an S: drive from the folder Shared in which they have access to their respective folder based (as a subdirectory of Shared) upon group membership (ie. retail or it) and the folder "everyone" (also a subdirectory of Shared): So far I've setup up the Shared folder as a share in smb.conf I then tried to chgrp on the respective folders according to their group (ie retail directory owned by retail group) but can still access all the other directories. [shared] comment = Shared folder path = /data/Shared force group = users read only = no create mask = 0770 directory mask valid users = @admins,@users ls -la /data/Shared/ total 32 drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 2007-06-06 17:05 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 2007-06-05 18:27 .. drwxr-xr-x 51 root root 4096 2007-06-05 19:22 accounts drwxr-xr-x 13 root users 4096 2007-06-05 19:57 everyone drwxr-xr-x 43 root root 4096 2007-06-05 20:05 incprogs drwxr-xr-x 9 root it 4096 2007-06-05 20:20 it drwxr-xr-x 2 root retail 4096 2007-06-06 17:05 retail -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 194 2007-06-05 19:22 S Drive.lnk ----------------------------------------------------------------- This email message is intended only for the addressee(s) and contains information that may be confidential and/or copyrighted.
