Addition to my previous post... There are also instances where the use of force user responding to a uid would be advantageous. E.g. a local users account conflicting with a domain account of the same name. e.g. force user = lewis
results in access denied on writes as the service connects to the share using the account MYDOMAIN\lewis with uid 10007 instead of the local unix lewis with uid 1007 account Just my $.02 worth... ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Force group gid Date: Friday 22 September 2006 12:19 pm From: Lewis Shobbrook <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: samba@lists.samba.org Hi All, I note from previous posts that the uid & gid are not supported in smb.conf. My issue is that I have mysql auth backend for ftp sites, that I'd like to share directories for internal access. There is currently no way I can see to force the user or group using uid & gid for this type of backend. Can anyone offer any suggestions as a work around to this?
