I find it puzzling how this discussion, including the official Samba response
http://www.samba.org/samba/news/symlink_attack.html fails to consider whether the mentioned configuration (when admin sets non-default "writeable = yes" but leaving default "wide links = yes") allows write access to the whole filesystem (where the user has UNIX rights). I also wonder about the interaction with the setting of "unix extensions" (which I had set to non-default "no" to help Mac clients).
