admin users (S)
This is a list of users who will be granted admin
istrative privileges on the share. This means that
they will do all file operations as the super-user
(root).
You should use this option very carefully, as any
user in this list will be able to do anything they
like on the share, irrespective of file permis
sions.
Default:
no admin users
