If I want to learn how to set up a Samba Active Directory, where do I start? Tom Thomas Rieff GreenCare 1717 3rd Avenue Mankato, MN 56001

...c55_data2, it is a group only for this share and it does exist on the Linux Machine. So is valid users in conflict with force group? Should I delete the valid users line entirely? Any other suggestions for proper authentication of users would be appreciated. Thanks for your help! Tom Thomas Rieff GreenCare 1717 3rd Avenue Mankato, MN 56001

Have a Linux Mint 19.1 with Samba 4.7.6 installed. Plan is to use this as a file server. Cannot connect from Windows 10. Win 10 sees the share but says group name could not be found. Everything worked on the previous Ubuntu machine. Any thoughts on where I should look? Tom Thomas Rieff GreenCare 1717 3rd Avenue Mankato, MN 56001

Are there any special quirks with Windows 10 and Samba... Using Visual Foxpro 9 on Windows 7 with the data and program files on a Samba file server. Will need to move to Windows 10 in a year so doing some testing. Everything works on one machine with 10 while on another it will not call the main.prg file on the Samba server. Trying to figure out if it is VFP9 issue or a quirk with Samba.

Rowland, Thanks for the response. We are using win 7 on desktop pc's and Ubuntu 16.04 w/Samba. Do you have any sample config's for 'vfs_accl_xattr' for Windows. My issue may be more about file locking than permissions???

...would at least eliminate SMB3 being a factor. Is visual foxpro accessing the main.prg file via a drive mapping (e.g. X mapped to \\server1\users\myname) or directly to the UNC path ( e.g \\server1\users\myname.) Presumably you are logged into windows as a regular user not an admin ?

...smbstatus it shows the following... Windows 7 machines connect showing SMB2_10. Windows 10 machines connect showing Unknown (0x0311). Supposedly Windows 10 machines should show SMB3_11. Curious if they are connecting correctly and/or if changes should be made??? Enjoy the day!!! Tom Thomas Rieff GreenCare 1717 3rd Avenue Mankato, MN 56001

I have a server which we use for backing up files. Noticed there was an upgrade available to 18.04.1. Now I cannot connect to from my win7 machine to the Ubuntu share. Any thoughts on what would have changed??? Tom

Where could i find some info to explain samba file permissions??? With most of the regular files that are on the server, life is good and fairly responsive. We are still using Visual Foxpro databases and at first things are responsive, but as time goes on it seems to bog down with multiple users...any thoughts are appreciated??? Tom

Thanks for the replys... Just a basic samba server...being accessed by windows 7 to the gc and tmr shares with \\10.10.171.9\gc and \\10.10.171.9\tmr This has been running for a year without any issues...till the update yesterday afternoon :-( The file server is Ubuntu 18.04 and there was an update to Ubuntu 18.04.1, which I thought would be a mild step. The current version of samba is...
