[Samba] Host NTFS Shares on Samba Server?
Running Samba 2.2.8a I have a secondary hard drive (100GB) full of desktop images that I would like to share. The drive is installed in my Samba server and currently setup in fstab as: /dev/hda2 /mnt/myntfs ntfs defaults 0 0 This allows root access read permissions. Can I setup my Samba server to allow domain admins to access the data on this secondary drive? Please advise, Tim Jordan

You should be able to just create a share that points to /mnt/myntfs You might want to set 'read only = true' for the share. Did you try this and get some sort of error message? Why do you think you need to treat the drive above any differently from any other share? -- Eric M.
