similar to: Grunbacher ACLs Linux Samba 2.2

Hi Samba folks, let me first introduce myself. I'm the guy behind <acl.bestbits.at>, the Linux ACL patch. (The other patch at <http://aerobee.informatik.uni-bremen.de/acl_eng.html> seems pretty much history BTW). A lot of work has gone into that project; we're approaching a very stable release soon... Now people keep asking me over and over again about ACL support in Samba.

Hallo, I have samba 3.04 on Solaris 9 platform with smb.conf use client driver = No default devmode = No default case = lower case sensitive = No preserve case = Yes short preserve case = No mangle case = No mangling char = ~ hide dot files = Yes hide special files = No hide unreadable = No hide unwriteable files = No

To all: I was wondering if there was any talk regarding the possible inclusion into either kernel 2.4.x or 2.5.x of a general and standard ACL interface for file system security. I've used the ACL patch from acl.bestbits.at on ext3 & love it dearly except for the quota issues. Despite those issues I absolutely could not live without ACL's on large file servers with a few hundred or

Hi all, I have just released the fourth alpha snapshot of what will become Samba 2.2.0. It's available from the usual ftp sites, in the alpha directory as : <ftp mirror>:/pub/samba/alpha/samba-2.2.0-alpha3.tar.gz If people could test this snapshot out and provide feedback about what is broken and let the lists know that would help. The problem acting as a PDC for

I tried running ext3 with posix acls (see http://acl.bestbits.at). The patches were easily merged and everything compiled fine. I created a journal.dat on my /home fs and mounted it as ext3. So far everything worked perfectly. But getfacl/setfacl didn't work on ext3. Mounting /home as ext2 solved the problem. Maybe ext3 and ext2 don't share enough code to get it working without rewriting

Hello out there again! I have a problem with ACLs: I build Samba 2.2.2 with ACL support. ACLs are 0.7.21 (from acl.bestbits.at) on a 2.4.10 Kernel. ACLs are working fine within Linux. When I connect to a Samba share from a Windows NT Workstation or Server, I only see the three standard acls representing world, group and owner. I have several files with acls for testing but non of this acls is

G'day... I've installed the acl - xatrrib patch from bestbits and it works nice on my RH9 system with Samba.. the only problem i encounter is that a file or directory losses it's extended atrributes when you copy it.. for example cp "--preserve=all /source /destination" preserves the normal acl af the linux system, but skips the acl/xattrib from bestbits. i used the

Hi, Can I know when a Samba user (one that is connecting to the Samba server via a Windows Client) creates a file in the shared folder or modifies a file in the shared folder, what would the acls of the file be? (I meant the gid and uid of the file) Mine worked as if it is always created as a root user. I thought the file should have the uid and gid or the person who created the file

Hey all, I decided to use the default ranges in the smb.conf of my member server, so I changed my smb.conf and it looks like that: ================================================== [global] netbios name = MEMBERSRV workgroup = MYDOM security = ADS realm = MYDOM.EXAMPLE.COM encrypt passwords = yes idmap config MYDOM:backend = ad idmap

Hello, I have today released an initial version of extended attributes and access control lists for ext3 (patch against the 2.4.13-ac3 kernel). Eric Jarman <ejarman@acm.org> has contributed a lot to this effort. Since I'm not very much into the innards of ext3, can some of you please take a look at the patch, and see whether it contains any flaws (and tell me which flaws)? Thanks! The

I don't know exactly the appropriate list to ask this question in but the web page gave me the impression this was. I don't particularly want to subscribe to the list as I can't handle the volume of messages which I'm not concerned with. I would just like to be able to ask a question concerning the email subject and receive ONLY replys to that message. I'm not too familiar with

Commit 699b6faa2ab283219914501d5117f8a93c7e441b allowed btrfs ACLs to be selectable, but put the option in the main fs/Kconfig, and didn''t make it depend on btrfs. This patch moves the option and adds the dependency. Signed-off-by: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@suse.com> --- fs/Kconfig | 13 ------------- fs/btrfs/Kconfig | 15 +++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 15

Hi. I want to use ACL on my RH-9.0 box (x86), so I got ext3 ACL patch from http://acl.bestbits.at/ and tried to apply it to the kernel that ships with RH (2.4.20-8). The patching fails on some vm file so I got a vanila kernel 2.4.20, apply the patch and compile it. This works fine. Also RH-9.0 precompiled Samba 2.2.7 works fine with ACL. I connected to my share with WinXP and do some testing

Intro: There have been a few postings on this subject with few answers. If anyone knows where to point those of us trying to work this out, or will enlighten us as to the limitations of ACL's and Samba, we would appreciate your help. So far, acl.bestbits.at does not have any information on this particular problem. Environment: Samba 3.0 alpha 21 or 23 (I skipped 22, but most likely it had

Hi to all... my problem is the same of the subject... i can`t make to delete any jobs from windows clients , but in the samba server, yes, normally...all the permisions for the share printer are enabled...(i have only this problem with my sama server, all the rest it's perfectly) what happend ????? thaks.....

Hello, I'm using sama 3.0.24 on linux machine that serves a share for a windows client. When editing a file on samba, using MS Word I can see there are severals (probably) backup files. ls looks like this: Dotaznik1.doc ~$taznik1.doc ~WRD0000.tmp ~WRD0001.tmp ~WRD0002.tmp ~WRD0003.tmp ~WRD0004.tmp These files do not disappear after I quit the Word. This does not happen if I edit

I notice that Sama builds with Samba 4.0.x now use WAFCACHE to store temporary files in the build process. Caching these files is fine, but what clears them out? I've been working in test environments where WAFCACHE was set to "/tmp/wafcache", such as building Fedora RPM's for testing, and eventually ran my filesystem out of inodes because nothing expires them. For now, I've

Hello, I have this big problem which bothers me for past week(s). I have setup a simple samba network on win95 only net and it worked fine. This time I try to setup a samba on a network having win98 WinNT 4.0 sp4 and WinNT4.0 WS SP 5. I believe all machines are on the same local net. I have tried both samba 2.0.5a (RH6.1 default) as well as samba 2.0.7. I can use 'smbclient'
