Sorry about not being specific enough. I will try and be more so in the
future. Here is what I have currently:
Apple X-serve running Yellowdog (a Redhat 9 port for ppc) with 1GB of
RAM, 3 60GB HD not setup as RAID. They are individual partitions (/var
and /, /home and /shared). The shared partition is strictly for Samba
file sharing. I build in a matching user in both the system and in
Samba. This way each user gets a private and a public folder.
I am running Samba Version 2.2.8
Below is my smb.conf:
[global]
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
load printers = no
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new*password* %n\n
*passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully*
obey pam restrictions = yes
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
encrypt passwords = yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
max disk size = 40000000000
wins support = true
dns proxy = no
netbios name = RSB
server string = RSB Server
printing = cups
default = shared
unix password sync = Yes
workgroup = RSB
os level = 20
printcap name = /etc/printcap
security = user
pam password change = yes
[homes]
browseable = no
writable = yes
comment = Home Directories
valid users = %S
create mode = 0664
max connections = 50
directory mode = 0775
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no
# Set public = yes to allow user 'guest account' to print
guest ok = no
writable = no
printable = yes
[shared]
browseable = yes
wide links = no
printable = no
writeable = yes
path = /mnt/drbd/nb1/shared
force create mode = 750
comment = Shared Files
valid users =

create mode = 750

I think that's it. Thanks
