All,
I am currently running Samba 3.0.2a on a RHEL3 server. I would like
to use the extended file systems permissions through windows, but I
haven't had much luck. Here is how I am set up....
My linux box is joined to my AD domain and appears to be functioning
correctly. I also have winbind set up, and functioning, although I
still have some tweaking to do, it is assigning user and group ids as I
would expect it to. I can create a share ok via Samba or active
directory users and computers with out a problem. However, once I
create this share, and I mount it on a windows client, I can't do
anything as far as setting or deligating permissions. When I look at
the folder properties, it says the folder it owned by root on my linux
server. It will not let me change the ownership to any other user. I
get a error that says something to the effect that I don't have the
rights to change the permissions.
Has anyone had this issue, and do you know what I can do to get around
this. I really don't want to go to a windows platform for my
fileservices.....
