[Samba] Trouble creating RPM
Greetings, I've download the latest source and am trying to install it on my Mandrake machine. I've gotten through the build process (about 12 dozen times) without error, but it never creates the rpm files. The command I used is: rpmbuild -ba --nobuild \ --without acl \ --without vscan \ --without ldap \ SPECS/samba.spec Everything processes normally, until the script just ends. No error, no success, no rpms, nothing in the logs. -snip of output-- Processing files: samba3-passdb-xml-3.0.7-1.1mdk Finding Provides: /usr/lib/rpm/filter.sh ' ' /usr/lib/rpm/find-provides Using BuildRoot: /home/rsa/rpm/tmp/samba3-3.0.7-root to search libs Finding Requires: /usr/lib/rpm/filter.sh ' ' /usr/lib/rpm/find-requires /home/rsa/rpm/tmp/samba3-3.0.7-root i586 Provides: xml.so Requires(rpmlib): rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) = 4.0-1 rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) = 3.0.4-1 Requires: samba3-server = 3.0.7-1.1mdk libc.so.6 libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.0) libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.1.3) libm.so.6 libpthread.so.0 libxml2.so.2 libz.so.1 Checking for unpackaged file(s): /usr/lib/rpm/check-files /home/rsa/rpm/tmp/samba3-3.0.7-root [EMAIL PROTECTED] rpm]$ -snip of output-- Has anyone created RPMS for Mandrake 9.2 using the latest 3.07?

[Samba] Unusual permissions problem
Hello, I have an issue with samba-3.0.10-1.fc3 permissions. The situation is this: I have a client that wants one user to have write permission to a directory, but a GROUP of users to have read access. Simple, right? First, I set up the directory structure per Linux: (According to the samba guide, it's more efficient to use sticky bits on the directory instead of using the force user clause in the smb.conf file.) drwsr-s--- 2 tcuser tcgroup 8.0K Jun 10 08:06 timecards Testing: Log in as a user who is a member of the tcgroup, can read all files in the tree: Success Log in as tcuser, can read, write, and delete all files in the tree: Success So I'm feeling pretty good about the Linux permissions. Now time to create the share: [timecards] comment = Timecards path = /timecards create mask = 0640 write list = tcuser valid users = tcuser, @tcgroup If I understand correctly, and obviously I don't, the write list and valid users lines are redundant, as Samba is supposed to use the file system permissions. Now the issue: I log in (via smbclient) as tcuser: Success Put a file into the share: Success Rename the file: Success Get the file back: Access Denied. So this user can put files but cannot read them back. (!) The really strange thing is if I set the world read bit to the file, then tcuser can read the file just fine, but from a Linux file permission perspective, that's a really bad thing, right? Any advice for this? Many thanks in advance, -=Ray -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Re: [Samba] Samba 3.0.26a Available for Download
In your migration back to src, any special considerations? Or will you just remove the rpm and install from the src? Any considerations for the smb.conf? I can't think of any off hand myself, but thought I'd put it out on the list just in case... In my particular situation, removing the rpm also removed the /var/log/samba dir and all subtrees, so if you want the log history of the machines, back that up first, and restore after removing the rpm. Otherwise, you must create the /var/log/samba directory. Also, for the Redhat/Fedora users, you will want to backup the /etc/init.d/smbd script and then restore and edit to point to the /usr/local/samba/sbin directory. Other than that, the migration was quite painless, and now I'm finally running an up to date samba with an up to date samba-vscan vfs plugin. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
