[Samba] user are able to access "/" partition.

[Dhillon, Gurjit]

Hi All.

 

We have a samba server at our location. We are facing out with some
issue. User who have the account on the server are able to access "/"
root access.

I have tried to add an extra line In Home sharing, which is "path = %H",
this lined solved my issue, but gave other issue. After implementing
this line under Home share, I am not able to open any other user's home
directory which is shared to me or have access to open. If I try to
access other user home, it simply open my own home directory, even the
directory which I am not author... , I endup opening my own home
directory instead of getting error.

 

Can any one out some light in this issue, how can I configure My samba,
where I can access other's shared home directory and stop other user to
access "/" partition.

 

 

Below is the output of configuration file. There are 2 conf file ,
/etc/samba/smb.conf and /usr/samba/lib/smb.conf.NU-DEV0
