I have tried this, but cannot seem to get it to work right. I am running
Samba-3.0.23c on FreeBSD 6.2.
When I add:
force user = mo+linda
to my smb.conf, I receive the following error message when I try to connect.
System Error 64.
The specified network name is no longer available.
If I remove the force user statement, I am able to connect to the share
fine, but the user is not set as I would like for it to be.
Following is a copy of the share I am working with.
[Test.Share]
comment = Test Share
valid users = mo+linda, mo+jay
write list = mo+linda, mo+jay
create mode = 0777
directory mode = 0777
# force user = mo+linda
writeable = Yes
brosweable = Yes
path = /home/linda
I have set the permissions on /home/linda to 777 for testing purposes.
I'm sure this is something simple that I am doing wrong. Any suggestions
would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jay
