Hi people, iam testing samba3 on freebsd 5.4, i install samba from ports
with no problems, i have this simple smb.conf file:
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
netbios name = FREEBSD
server string = Samba Server FreeBSD
security = user
encrypt passwords = yes
[public]
comment = %h Shared Public Directory
path = /opt/test
force directory mode = 0777
force create mode = 0777
force group = nobody
force user = nobody
public = yes
writeable = yes
read only = no
My problem right now is that i want to create one folder with the user X
inside this share and give access to user Y to that sub-folder, them i
create the folder with the user X from windows 2000, smbd create the folder
with this permisions:
root# getfacl test
#file:test
#owner:65534
#group:0
user::rwx
group::rwx
other::rwx
The owner is nobody like the smb.conf say, the group 0 is wheel, ok here
everybody can access the folder, but what about if i only want to give
access to the owner(X user) and the user Y...?
Ok, after rading some docs, i do this:
Go to freebsd login with root and change the folder rights:
root# chown X:Y /opt/test/NewFolder
root# chmod 770 /opt/test/NewFolder
Now user X or Y if try to access the folder from windows 2000 smbd say
"\\Freebsd\public\test is not accessible Access is denied"
I have been reading the samba 3 by examples book "10.3.3 Share Point
Directory and File Permisions", but didnt find the answer, and the chapter
15 of the samba how-to but they speak about the smb.conf shares, and i want
to apply this to sub-folders i create inside of samba shares...?
I think this can be done inside the Unix/Linux box with the root user but
i still dont find the way, what i forget...?
Hope you can help me people, thanks all for your time!!!
