Hi all,
I need a share visible for everyone but writable only
for people in group admin.
Here is what is in the smb.conf file:
[admin]
comment = Administration Folders Directory
path = /usr/shares/admin
browseable = yes
public = yes
share modes = yes
write list = @admin
create mode = 0770
directory mode = 0770
Everything works fine with Windows 98 but we
upgrade few machines to Windows XP and now
every user access the share as pcguest.
If the share has "public = yes" SAMBA never ask XP clients
for name/password so even if you are in admin group
when you login from Windows XP you get connected to this
share as pcguest and don't have permissions to write.
If "public = no" then Samba ask for name and password but
the share is not visible for the others.
SuSE Linux 7.2
SAMBA-2.2.5
Please advice.
Thank you
Peter
