Hi all, I have a question about setting permissions on files and folders in Samba versions that differentiate between the two. Groups are mapped via net groupmap indicating that setting the UNIX group permissions on a directory will be mapped across to the relevant NT Group but how are UNIX users mapped. I ask because on my LDAP backended Samba 3.0.23c server I can access folders when the Windows XP properties box says their owned by unix user fred (Unix User/fred) when logged in to an XP box as (NTDOMAIN/fred). Are the two automatically mapped to each other via Samba/LDAP or do I have to set ACLs up using smbcacls? I've read the relevant sections in the By Example and Howto guides but would like clarification before continuing. Cheers, jools
