[Samba] Permissions Changing on BIND, Causing Samba Trouble
Greetings, For whatever reason, the BIND server running on our Samba AD instance changes permissions on /var/lib/samba/private/ldapi and /var/lib/samba/private to root:root, and causes all kinds of trouble. If I change the permissions back to named:root, it works fine. But after about 3 or 4 weeks it will revert back to root:root. How do I prevent this from happening in the future? Thanks. Asai

[Samba] Permissions Changing on BIND, Causing Samba Trouble
your permissions are set wrong. I dont know your OS, but this is what i use on debian. read this part of my script and adapt what you need for your OS. for debian user "named" = bind permdir=$(stat -c %a "/var/lib/samba/private") if [ "$permdir" = "755" ]; then echo "/var/lib/samba/private permissions are 755, which is ok." else echo "enable-ing access for bind in /var/lib/samba/private" chmod 755 /var/lib/samba/private fi permfile=$(stat -c %G "/var/lib/samba/private/dns.keytab") if [ "$permdir" = "bind" ]; then echo "Group bind is already set on /var/lib/samba/private/dns.keytab" else echo "enable-ing access for bind in /var/lib/samba/private" chown root:bind /var/lib/samba/private/dns.keytab fi and for debian : dpkg-statoverride --add root bind 755 /var/lib/samba/private dpkg-statoverride --add root bind 640 /var/lib/samba/private/dns.keytab and your set.

Thank you, I have changed permissions on them and hopefully that will help, but in my experience, even if I have permissions set to 777 it still will change ownership and stop working. How can this happen with 777 permissions?
