This should be simple, but I've been pounding my head against it for
several hours, and I'm not getting the result I want.
I'd like to be able to select shares, whether they are the root of a
drive or /home/username and designate who can read and who can read/write.
Does Samba have it's own groups to go with it's own users?
I really can only use "security = user" in this case...
I'd like to do something like give the root user read/write access to
the root of the drive, give user roy read-only access to the root of the
drive, and give user willie read/write access to /home/pictures, is
there a way to do that with Samba or is that a Linux/groups/acl kind of
thing?
It seems if I have a share that someone can read, anyone can read it, is
that right?
There are some hints in the default smb.conf like:
# A publicly accessible directory, but read only, except for people in
# the "staff" group
; [public]
; comment = Public Stuff
; path = /home/samba
; public = yes
; writable = yes
; printable = no
; write list = +staff
but +staff isn't documented anywhere (user or @group is, but not
+staff), and adding creating a Linux group called staff and adding users
to it doesn't help.
Thanks in advance for any hints!
