Hi, I am testing share parameters, and have the following share definition: ## Section - [shareA] [shareA] path = /tmp/shareA writelist = user1 and do not understand why user1 cannot write files in the share when connected as user1. Unix permissions for the share files are rw for everyone, and the share directory has wide-open permissions. Samba version is 3.0.20b-3.4-SUSE.

I'm trying to set up a new server to replace my previous domain controller/file&print server on my home network. My old server was running Debian/Etch on a 32bit sempron system with two HDs. The new one is running an old 64bit single-core processor and 3 HDs configured into multiple RAID 1 and 5 arrays (/boot as RAID 1 and /, /home, swap and a /backup directory as RAID 5). The new server

I've been at this for hours now and am still not getting it to work. I've been through the lists trying to find an answer and so far as I can tell, everything is configured OK. Obviously it's not, but I'm stuck. I recently installed Squeeze on my home server, overwriting a Lenny installation. I've been able to add my NT (Windows XP/Pro) domain accounts back in and pdbedit

I think the title says it all :) I got far enough along in the Xen documentation that the documentation recommended me to start using XenCenter to manage the server. Why am I being asked by XenCenter to register my XCP 1.0 server? I know it''s similar, but it''s not a Citrix XenServer... ;) >From what I can gather, XCP is open source freeware...correct me if I''m

Hi, I'm trying to get samba to force a certain set of permissions for files and directories but so far I don't have much success. This is what I'm trying to enforce: create mask = 0770 security mask = 0770 directory mask = 0770 directory security mask = 0770 force create mode = 0660 force security mode = 0660 force

We have just upgraded from Samba 1.9.18p7 to 2.0.6. We are now encountering this problem with 2.0.6 which was discussed back in 1998. We never had the problem with 1.9.18p7. We haven't changed the smb.conf as we are just using Samba in basic fileserver mode. Is there a change we need to make to get rid of this message and restriction occuring? Andrew 1998 Discusion: >I have a

Please could a Samba developer or user answer these questions. Background: We use Samba for serving files, and it has worked extremely well in this simple mode for 20,000 plus users in this university for the previous 3/4 years. Thanks to all those involved for this excellent software. We are soon to implement Windows 2K and Active Directory as the university's primary authentication

Hi all, There seems to be a conflict in the online documentation as to the 'security =' level and the 'add user script'. http://ie.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.html#AEN1146 says that you have to have 'security = user' in order to have Samba behave as a PDC. Further on :- http://ie.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.html#AEN1231 it says
