Hello list
 
I've a problem giving exclusive access to home directory to the user owning
it via Samba 3.0.24
 
I've setup access and user authentication and setup the share as follow
 
[Home]
        path = /home
#        valid users = %S
        valid users = "@DMSWARE\domain users"

Each home directory is owned by the AD user

Drwx------   4 gianlucaculot     domain users   512 Jul  5 15:47
gianlucaculot 

If I set "valid users= "@DMSWARE\domain users"
I can get read only access to Home Directory, BUT NOT to the user directory,
Not even my own directory

If I set " valid users = %S " I cannot get access to the Home Share.

The ONLY way to read (and write) the home directory is to set 
Drwxr-xr-x   4 gianlucaculot     domain users   512 Jul  5 15:47
gianlucaculot
valid users = "@DMSWARE\domain users"

But this is quite odd.....

Please can any bodyu give me a hint ....
I'd like to give Exclusive access to eah owner to the Home Directory
