G'day, I'd like to know how to restrict access to the [homes] share. Currently, each user is able to read/write to his/her own share, and by typing \\machine\anotheruser can open another user's share and read/write there too. I would like to restrict access so that a user can only read/write to their own share only. Here is some of the relevant config: [global] workgroup = ASDF

Help, I've just downloaded your latest source into my sparc, and it won't run configure. When I enter "./configure" it returns an error message that it doesn't find a valid CC.

Apologies if this has been covered already, I can't find any helpful hints after 2 hours searching.... Testparm refuses to work on my e250 box - says it can't find the file?

Hello, I am wondering if anyone could help me out with the following questions: 1. How to uninstall Samba? 2.

And the document:"Using Samba" mentioned the file "inetd.conf" but I couldn't find it in MDK9.)

All, I have been terribly pleased with openbsd 3.2 I was using it as a mail/samba server with postifx on a pentium pro 200 with 1 gig of memory. Well I wanted to add a larger harddrive than what I have in it now only 6.4 gig. Well the machine would not see it and for some reason after hours and hours of trying I can't get a tekram 395UW and a 18gig scsi to be the boot drive and having failed

If I understand correctly, in order to have the smb.conf file applied you need to restart smbd. Is "service smbd reload" sufficient (which does a "killproc smbd -HUP")? Will this kill any active connections to samba resources causing user disruption? Or is this a seamless process that can be carried out midday? I ask because if I need to kill all user connections to

And in both cases i had to drop in a custom-made startup script, see below. I was wondering esepcially in the case of the rpm, and
