Using Samba 3.07 i wanna the passwd program to be run as the user. Is this possible ? Here's my smb.conf the general section of my smb.conf. log level = 100 passwd program = passwd %u passwd chat = *old*password*%o\n *new*password*%n\n *new*password*%n\n * passwd chat debug = true unix password sync = yes Doing it this way forces samba to change it as root, and this is giving me another

I host a server where the files on the server are licensed such that only one user can access each file at any one time. To clarify: There could be 100 files on the server, and each file can only ever be read by one user. I'm trying to find a way of either allowing only 1 TCP connection per file, or perhaps forcing a read-lock on every file opened such that no other users can access a file
