I'm having issues with a couple of areas of Samba Setup. I can see (from my Win 8.1 workstation) the shares for the server for my test share \\p30\download<file:///\\p30\download> and \\p30\bietz<file:///\\p30\bietz> my home folder. I don't have permissions to access the folders and/or can't create or delete files. I had an upgraded Active Directory domain from Windows server 2003 to Windows 2012 R2 AD domain controllers. I also use winmin Version 1.75 to admin Samba ... In the document " Setup a Samba AD Member Server" last release page ~8 - Setting up PAM Auth... I see the addition below. account [default=bad success=ok user_unknown=ignore] pam_winbind.so # <-- add this line but my choices are for pam_windbind.so are in a drop down and my choices are. Sufficient (Success authentication immediately on success) Optional (Success or failure is ignored) Required (Fail Authentication at end on failure) Requisite (Fail Authentication Immediately on failure) Nothing like the [default=bad success=ok user_unknown=ignore] in the documentation. Q - what is the correct value to use? Also the line in the same PAM Auth area account required pam_unix.so broken_shadow I'm not allowed to add the broken_shadow as a parameter Q: Is this a problem? In document " Setup_and_configure_file_shares_with_windows_ACL#Related_documentation" Area SeDiskOperatorPrivilege I use the command for adding SeDiskOperatorPrivilege and when I run the command as seen below I have an error.
