Creating 5 new shares is most easy solution I think. Instead if you can use ACL, you can create a group, make interns belong to the group and add ACL entries to the 5 folders only, which allow access to the group. Setting "hide unreadable = yes" other 45 folders cannot be seen by interns. > So I created a new share for the intern and symlinked the 5 subfolders which > they can see just fine, but they get a permission denied which makes > sense since the intern account is not part of larger group with > access to the 5 folders in question. Setting chmod o+rwx to the 5 folders is a way I think. --- TAKAHASHI Motonobu <[email protected]> -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
