passwd sync

[Marcel Kunath]

A sum of smb questions.

Below is my smb.conf and smb.conf.nobody

1. Normal users should be able to write to homes and network-drive.

works

2. webartist users can mount and write testsite.

works.

3. all should be able to print

works

4. Normal users should change and sync passwds. Nobody user is the guest and
should not.

The passwd syncing still doesn't work.

5. I am unsure with multiple smb.conf.* files what statements should be in
which. I had a smb.conf.nobody file which didn't contain the testsite and homes
section and it caused the normal users not to be able to mount those shares.
Why would that make sense? If this file is for the nobody user only why would
it affect the normal users? Can't I remove certain stuff from smb.conf.nobody
because it doesn't affect the nobody user?
