...rched the archives and I can't seem to find an mention of it. The smb.conf is quite simple, its a test machine. I can reply with it if necessary. Here's an example: I've made the directory and shared it: # getfacl /samba/export/testshare2 # file: /samba/export/testshare2 # owner: dpullman # group: melsaunx user::rwx group::r-x #effective:r-x mask:r-x other:r-x default:user::rwx default:group::r-x default:mask:r-x default:other:r-x Now I've gone to the share and changed the group and default group perms from an XP security tab: # getfacl /samba/export/testshare2 #...

...the owner of the shared directory control of perms. We use NIS (yes, still, but ldap is coming soon :) for all UNIX workstations and the servers, and we also use a NT domain controller (PDC and BDCs) for the windows workstations. The user names are the same on both account databases. So I'm dpullman on windows and on UNIX logins. We maintain a consistent uid and username in NIS on each account with a master database at our facility. Lets us use shared resources across otherwise disconnected political boundaries, i.e., the login is the same and so the user is known. Our windows logins map th...

We have a file server, solaris 2.8 running SAMBA 2.2.8, that has two netbios names and we have an include file for smb.conf for each. We have some machines that are trusted and some that are not. Trusted means standardized windows install, users don't have root, untrusted means not necessarily standard install, users do have root. The trusted machines are defined in an NIS netgroup.

Has anyone seen or implemented SAMBA server usage reporting? The sort of thing that can be reported to management. Perhaps even any ideas on how to approach this, even if it would need to be built in-house? My intention is to show "how much" the server is used, such as number of users, number of connections, etc. As you can imagine, I'd like to find a way to show what we get

We've just built a RHEL 5 ES server to test the issues we've been having with group permissions since 3.0.23 (re: 3.0.23d UNIX vs. AD group permissions) and we found we have the same issue with the Redhat built rpm of version 3.0.23c. The following is the ldap and winbind portion of our smb.conf, the same as used on our current Solaris production servers: # ldap settings ldap
