Jim and all,
I have recently been experimenting with using the security dialogues from Win
95 to modify ACLs on files on my samba server. However, I have come across a
problem (using CVS from a couple of days ago). First i shall explain the
situation:
I am using linux kernel 2.4.4 with the best bits acl patch installed and
functional. My workstations are all running Windows 95 OSR 2. Now onto the
problem:
1) As root, I create a file in windows
results getfacl on linux box:
# file: Test.txt
# owner: root
# group: root
user::rwx
group::r--
other:r--
2) Using the security dialogues, I set 'No access' for a user called p1
# file: Test.txt
# owner: root
# group: root
user::rwx
user:p1:---
group::r--
mask:rwx
other:r--
3) Now if I log on as user 'p1', I can use the 'take ownership' button to
take ownership of the file:
# file: Test.txt
# owner: p1
# group: root
user::rwx
user:p1:---
group::r--
mask:rwx
other:r--
4) I can now modify/access the file.
This cant be right? Surely?
Any more info will be willingly provided. I am keen to get this working in a
production environment.
Many thanks,
Mark Westcott
