samba - Jul 2003 - how to check open connections/files without smbstatus / swat

Hi,

I have one user who should be able to _view_ all open files and 
connections on a samba server.

He should not be allowed to login to the server by telnet or ssh to use 
smbstatus, nore should he be able to use swat as long as he could view 
the configfile.

So my question: is there a way to configure swat for one user to only 
view the opened connections? Or dose someone has an other idea?

Thanks in advance!

If you happen to be running a web server on the Samba box, you might run a CGI
script
that presents the output of smbstatus to a password protected web page. 
That's how I did
something similar here. Using this method, I have an internal web page that
shows a list
of users currently connected, and another that lists open files.  I could
provide copies
of the Perl scripts if you're interested.
