Hello, I'm using Samba 3.4.2 with CTDB. If I remove a user from the valid users list with "net conf setparm Share 'valid users' ..." on the server, and I connect a new Windows client to the Samba server on Linux, I get a permission denied for that user, which is correct behavior.
However, there is a problem for active connections. If I revoke access for a user with a live connection to a share, the user can continue to modify files. Between a Windows server and client this type of change is instantaneous. So I'm seeing different behavior between what Samba/Windows and Windows/Windows configurations. The only alternative I've found is to kill the smbd process of any user currently logged on, but I'm not sure which share they're connected to. So maybe I shouldn't be doing that. Is there a reliable way to get Samba to pay attention to any permission changes on live connections? Sincerely.
