similar to: smbusers and root privs

Is it possible to define file rights, such that - The file is owned by root, with full privleges on the Linux server. The file is shared by a group "users". The shared file should be available for read and write access. That part's easy - but now.... Deny delete, overwrite, or rename access to this file. Is this possible? -- Daniel

I want to build an application that has the concept of administrative domains. What I mean by this is that administrators have access to different data, based on what domains they are a member of. The domain strucutre is hierarchical. Here is an example: - MLB - AL - East - Yankees - Red Sox ... + Central + West - NL + East + Central + West Now

Hi, I am in the process of attempting a NT4 Domain to Samba migration (3.2.5). I have been following the instructions at http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-Guide/ntmigration.html. I am using an ldap backend. I am not convinced everything is set-up correctly. Before I began I removed all /var/lib/samba/*tdb and shutdown smb and ldap. At point 13 where you do `getent group` the Domain

I can get this game to install and launch, but it does not run properly or at all. I have: Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope AMD64 Alternate Wine 1.1.18 Cedega 7.1.1 Sid Meier?s Alpha Centauri and Alien Crossfire CDs (Sold Out version) The game is best played with the expansion pack, Alien Crossfire. Alien Crossfire and Alpha Centauri are both available in linux versions, if you can find them. There

I have Samba working nicely so that Win2K users in our organization can mount their Unix home directories as Samba shares using their Unix passwords. Now I would like to go further, allowing anyone in our organization to plop down a Win2K workstation and have it join our (Samba-controlled) domain. Then any person in our organization could walk up to the workstation, log in using his Unix

I now fully and completely remember why I hate Windows. I have struggled with the backup semantics options in order to get rsync able to back up open files, and I got something that appeared like it should work, but it didn't work. So I finally broke down and wrote a holdopen.exe and a tryopen.exe to test my theory, and no matter what privleges were enabled (backup and restore were enabled),

Hi, I implemented a samba(3.0.14a-Debian) server here on my network. But i'm having problems with 2 stations. One is a win2k(profissional) and the other is a win 2k server (working like a station). When i tried join in a domain using the win2k(profissional) i receive the msg: unknown interface The strange is that it is happening only with this win2k station. I have others stations with

(Re-posting to list also.. Sorry forgot Cc. -Tom) Marc, Thanks for your help and clarifications. I was indeed addressing the domain controller (2012 R2) due to my misunderstanding. Addressing the request at the file server (Samba 4) to the file server fails too but with different errors. Rights list succeeds. $ net rpc rights list accounts -UDOMAIN\\Administrator Enter

> Now I'm stuck in the RSAT Computer Management Console where I am denied > access to the share configuration. So can someone tell me which of the below Se Privileges should not be on the "Domain Admins" group? Because setting only SeDiskOperatorPrivilege is just stupid, really this needs to be changed on the wiki. root = Adminstrator and Adminsitrator is in "Domain

The samba.org documentation page does not provide a man page for the possible formats for the smbusers file. I am fighting with samba->Active Directory and mapping AD users to Unix logins. The AD guy says credentials can be either: <Domain NetbiosName>/<lanid> or <lanid>@<Domain FQDN> BUT, I seem to be having luck (with some help from the log files) using:

Hi all, I would like to access my RedHat Enterprise box which has Samba 3.0.9, by mapping a network drive from WinXP and specifying the UNIX account/password on the server. Is this possible? I can duplicate account usernames/passwords into smbusers/smbpasswd, but doing this for every user is a pain. Thanks in advance for any suggestions or pointers, Phil

Hi All, I've solved the capital letter NT username problem from the earlier post but still can't get Vampire to pull across accounts with numerical IDs (about 700 of them). Does vampire allow the mapping of UNIX to NT ID's during the transfer or am I stuffed. Thanks, Joolz

Hi All, Since Y'all helped solve the last problem, I have one more that would be really a great thing if it could work. I have several accounts on the linux box that I work with and help out on and would love to be able to get them to be available with w98. Besides my regular account, I work on the following (as setup in smbusers): root = vikki ... vx1 = vikki vx7 = vikki nslmc = vikki

It is my understanding that if you have a wildcard in smbusers, it should only apply this if the particular users is not in your /etc/password file. Is this true? It appears like samba is rolling down the smbusers file and everything gets mapped to my wildcard user. Eg. smbusers: root = administrator admin nobody = guest pcguest smbguest myunixlogin = mysmblogin www-users = * If I map a

Hi all, I have a problem with using smbclient, my current setup as follows: - Linux 9 login/password: excalibur & xxx Windows 2000 login/password: MYDOMAIN\darrenk & yyy - Linux smb service - did not change anything in smb.conf except to make it use plain passwords: ; encrypt passwords = yes ; smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd - Windows 2000 - apply plain password

Hi, I've been Googling around trying to found why I can't make SAMBA (concretely smbpasswd and pdbedit) make good use of the information held in the file /etc/samba/smbusers. I have done a clean install of Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES 4.1 Update 3 (both x86_64 and IA32) and Fedora Core 5. In all cases, running the following command fails: # smbpasswd -a Administrator New SMB password:

Hello. I don't know if you're the person who can help me. I've got a problem with Samba 3.5.8.1 on a AIX 5.3 TL11SP1 machine. I installed and configured Samba. It worked fine. I use a DOMAIN member security mode. The join into our domain worked well. Any users from a Windows computer is able to access to the AIX machine. But the only problem I have is this one : - The use

Hello, i have a user, say userA, which has a valid account (/etc/passwd) on my RH 6.1CZ box, as well as samba one (/etc/smbpasswd). userA logs into his win98 box as a userB, which is unknown both to samba and unix. So I put a new record in /etc/smbusers like this: userA = userB afterwards I have restarted samba server, but the user still cannot connect to his samba shares if he use userB as his

Hi, i am trying to map the domain administrator to root using the smbusers file in order to be able to set file permissions from windows. Unfortunately, while the map itself seem to succeed, the logins fails. If i remove the relevant line in smbusers, login succeed but i lack superuser privileges. Here is log.smbd while trying to map administrator to root [2008/07/09 12:50:42, 4]
