[Samba] Vanishing Permissions on Shares
I am trying to move our network from windows NT-2k to Samba /Linux. So far everything is great but there is one main obstacle; when I apply permissions to a Samba share via my W2K workstation, the permissions instantly disappear. This happens regardless of the owner / creator of file or the user / group permission I attempt to add. I have run 2.2.7, 2.2.8, and now 3.0 beta3. All three behave the same, though 3.0 seems nicer. It's a RedHat 9.0 box with the 2.6 test kernel ( so I can use ACLs). I am running Winbind and it works great. The client workstation is Win2k Sp4. I have logging on full debug @ 10, and nothing obvious is showing up. In fact no errors are being reported at all.

Do you have the nsswitch.conf entries to allow your nameservice to resolve usernames through winbind? If samba cannot resolve the name to a UID using getpwnam then it cannot apply the ACL. matt.twigg@insurance.sungard.com wrote:> > I am trying to move our network from windows NT-2k to Samba /Linux. > So far everything is great but there is one main obstacle; when I apply > permissions to a Samba share via my W2K workstation, the permissions > instantly disappear. > This happens regardless of the owner / creator of file or the user / group > permission I attempt to add. > > I have run 2.2.7, 2.2.8, and now 3.0 beta3.

[Samba] Vanishing Permissions on Shares
<snip>
Do you have the nsswitch.conf entries to allow your nameservice
to resolve usernames through winbind? If samba cannot resolve the
name to a UID using getpwnam then it cannot apply the ACL.

Hi,
I do have;
passwd: files winbind
shadow: files
group: files winbind
As per the winbind doc @ samba.org.
Should I go beyond this?
