I'm running samba 3.0.13 on a debian box, sharing out NFS filesystems
from a solaris box. I know, bad idea.. file locking, etc... non-issues
at the moment.
I've discovered that if I make a share from a local filesystem,
the PC's mounting the share see their quota (hard limit, not
soft which is another matter) as their capacity and their
appropriate free space... this is good.
When I share ouf the NFS mounted volume, the PC's see the entire
volume size and free space. Not so good. Okay fine, so I
wrote a little cheesy script to run run quota and report back and
defined it as "get quota command = myscript" in smb.conf.
This works great... mostly. I wasn't seeing the values I
expected to see, so I started dumping the arguments samba was
passing to my scipt. I expected 3 fields: Path, type of query, and
user/group ID. something like:
"." 1 32849 (user quota)
"." 3 1178 (group quota)
instead, I'm seeing samba pass:
"." 2 32849 (default user quota)
"." 4 1178 (default group quota)
Why is samba asking for the default user and group quotas instead of
the actual user and group quotas? From the documentation I would
have expected that if field 2 was a 2 or 4, then the uid/gid would be
-1. How can I make samba request the actual user and group's quota
instead of the defaults?
