I am using an NT PDC for Authentication I also keep disabled Unix Account with the same Name Certain group (abacus) for all users allowed to access the share in the share i have a default path with a help file explaining that the User is not setup on the linux machine and that the person needs to contact the sys admin i also have an include = /etc/smb.conf.%G and i have a file called smb.conf.abacus in /etc interstingly ... it does not work with %g eventhough using %g displays the correct data when useded in comment on win98se it is not replaced by the proper group and it sais instead %g (not abacus) on nt 4.0 and win2k since its working with %G things should be fine but oddly it only works now and then on NT machines actually i most does not work is this a bug? or may there just be something funky going on in my special case Lukas Smith
i think i have found out under which conditions it works under nt it seems that i have to be logged in for 30 mins or so then %G is properly used in the include ... under win98se there is no such problem Lukas Smith> I am using an NT PDC for Authentication > I also keep disabled Unix Account with the same Name Certain group(abacus)> for all users allowed to access the share > > in the share i have a default path with a help file explaining that theUser> is not setup on the linux machine and that the person needs to contact the > sys admin > > i also have an include = /etc/smb.conf.%G > > and i have a file called smb.conf.abacus in /etc > > interstingly ... it does not work with %g > > eventhough using %g displays the correct data when useded in comment on > win98se > it is not replaced by the proper group and it sais instead %g (not abacus) > on nt 4.0 and win2k > > since its working with %G things should be fine > > but oddly it only works now and then on NT machines > actually i most does not work > > is this a bug? > > or may there just be something funky going on in my special case > > Lukas Smith >
