Hello
I've been noticing a problem with swat. It doesn't seem to parse my
"include"
lines correctly. I tried adding the following two via a manual edit of smb.conf:
[global]
include = /usr/local/etc/smbcustom/machines/%m
include = /usr/local/etc/smbcustom/users/%U
I look at the smb.conf file in swat, and the first include line is gone. All I
see is:
include = /usr/local/etc/smbcustom/users/
If I commit the changes from SWAT, it actually overwrites what I put in there
manually with the second garbaged version. I'm currently working around this
by
re-adding the desired lines manually, but I'd prefer not to have to. Samba
reads the first version fine, but it appears swat is choking on something.
Samba version is 2.0.7; whatever comes with that is the version of SWAT I'm
using (I'd give a swat version number if I knew how to find it).
Any solutions?
Thanks
-Kurt

Things like "include = .... %x" are for sophisticated administrators. Swat is not a sophisticated adiministrator and it has no crystal ball.
