similar to: reverse veto files?

Since the list responsiveness seems to be at a high, le me take the opportunity to repost a message that got no answers in March: I've searched the list, and I can't find reference to this being implemented: reverse veto files - a list of files *allowed* rather than the current list of files *denied*. Possibly implemented by just allowing a ! in the veto files directive. eg: veto

Hi People: In the how to posted on .. http://us3.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/winbind.html The docs says several times to the option -B in the winbindd , but I can't find anything on the manpage about that switch and I can't notice any difference by using it. The docs are outdated? or my 3.0.24 dosen't have this feature? Tnxs in advance.

Im having some problems with the samba 3.0.24 in Debian Etch when I try to list the groups, like this: wbinfo -g or net rpc group -U username All the times the output of the command is... "NOTHING". In samba 3.0.14 (Sarge), this works OK. I don't try in a newer version of samba. I test this with the debug on -d 4 with the rpc command and this is the ouput (see attached files).

Hi people, im new on the list. I have a samba 3.0.10 working as a PDC with roaming profiles for win2003 clients.

Hi people! I have a few problems with the password strength in Samba. I have a PDC with LDAP on Debian Stable, with a few packages from backports. The problem is that I can't find a way to enforce strenght to the passwords of the users. I can't define a policy to force things like: number of uppercase letters, number of downcase letters, number of numbers in the password, to check the

Is there a way to enable user to change password on first signon?

Someone knows of a tool to make samba usage graphs? I know this isn't exactly samba related. But I have several samba fileservers and it would be great to have such tool to measure the usage of a fileserver. Mostly openfiles, but connected users would be great. Tnxs in advance.

Hi people, i was experimenting with the pdbedit and i found the "user must change password at next logon". The thing i wan't able to make it work. I just can login and im not asked to change my password! How's that? The other thing.. i want to make my password expire after 30 days. I did this too, but it dosen't apply until i change my password one more time. I can make

While working on my existing member file server smb.conf config file I found an entry for "veto files" like the following: veto files = /.bash_logout/.bash_profile/.bash_history/.bashrc/ The "man smb.conf" entry says: veto files (S) This is a list of files and directories that are neither visible nor accessible. Each entry in the list must be

Hi ! I would like to remove from listing the "Icon?" files created by mac user when they customize their folder icon. So I did in my smb.conf : veto files = /Icon?/ ok it's working, but "Icone" "Iconx" "Icons" will be removed too. I tried veto files = /Icon\?/ but it's not working, Is there a way to use question mark (?) but not as a wild-card ?

How can I *veto* dot files? The naive approach of using /.*/ fails in so far as no file at all appears on the NT side :-) Hiding isn't enough for me, as I do want to see all hidden files on the NT side of things - I just don't want to see the Linux dot files on the NT side. This is Samba 2.0.6 (RH6.2) with the below configuration. TIA, Stefan ************ # Samba config file

Hi guys, I use "veto files = /.mp3/.mpg/" etc. on the [homes] share to prevent users from storing media files on a Samba server in the home directories. My client now wishes to make this restriction apply to users who are members of only certain groups. E.g. This restriction must apply to users who are members of the "Students" group and not apply to users in the

Hi all.. I'm update my samba, from 2.2.8a to 3.0.2a, and now my 'veto oplock files' do no work... I set my option like this: veto oplock files = /*.mdb/*.MDB/ but after the first user open our software (that opens a file .mdb in a samba share) the second user can't open... he gets the error message: 'Couln't lock the file' Even setting all locking options = no, the

linux 2.2.19/rh6x I use in a share veto files = /.*/ whenever you connect to it the client process hangs, the smbd starts consuming cpu time and cannot be killed but with "kill -9".

We use some 'veto files' on our shares to avoid users to have multimedia files (movies, mp3 and so on). Now we have a true demand to allow certain users to store corporate videos (about our

Good night. I am behind a way so that in my backup share it is possible to only write files in the format of the application that I use to execute the backup routines, for this I searched the internet for a solution that works like Allow Files, however it is Complicated to find. Talking on forums a user informed me that he could use the parameter to follow in smb.conf, however in my tests it did

When users create a file on this share, the files are created with permission's equal to 764 (rwxrw-r--). I want the permission's to be 760 (rwxrw----). How can I accomplish this for this share?
