[Samba] Second HowTo about setup and configure file shares
Hello, almost one year ago, I wrote the 'Setup and configure file shares' HowTo. It describes the way using Windows tools and ACLs. I have renamed the HowTo: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setup_and_configure_file_shares_with_Windows_ACLs Now I have added a new guide to the Wiki about the same topic, but using the classic way with POSIX ACLs and Samba share parameters: https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Setup_and_configure_file_shares_with_POSIX_ACLs I think it's neccessary, because both ways exist and not all *nix admins want to use Windows for administering shares/filesystem ACLs. ;-) Also it will be part of the 'Moving to Samba 4x' guide, I've planned. Because I think many admins still sit on 3x and won't upgrade, because the misbelief exists, that Samba 4 is AD/Windows ACLs/etc. stuff only. And because the end of 3.6 is comming soon, I want to provide more documentation to encourage people to move to the latest 4x version. Suggestions, topics, etc. are welcome. :-) Regards, Marc
