All,
On my ubuntu linux machine here, I already have samba set up and configured
with winbind to perform authentication against the local windows domain
controller. Thankfully that part is all working fine - that was supposed to be
the hard part. The issue I have now is: I need to grant members of a certain AD
group access to share (this was supposed to be easy, but is not working)
sanity check of winbind (sample output):
$ wbinfo -g
MYDOMAIN\domain admins
MYDOMAIN\domain users
MYDOMAIN\my group
MYDOMAIN\my group2
Looks good. I need to grant all users in "my group" access to the share, all
others shouldn't even see it.
[share]
comment = Testing
path = /media/share
guest ok = no
read only = yes
valid users = @"MYDOMAIN\My Group"
browseable = no
locking = no
If I put guest ok = yes, everything works fine. If I turn it to no, I get an authentication prompt.
Answering it with invalid credentials comes back with "invalid user name or bad
password", vs valid credentials says "access denied". So I know that the
authentication with the domain controller is working fine, but limiting access to that group only
is not.
The group name has a space in it which probably isn't helping. I have tried
many different combinations, but nothing seems to work. What is the proper
syntax for this? We have winbind separator=\ earlier in tthinkhe config file --
is that part of the problem maybe?
valid users = @"MYDOMAIN\My Group"
valid users = "@MYDOMAIN\My Group"
valid users = "MYDOMAIN\My Group"
etc
nothing seems to work. My methodology for testing this is fine as soon as i put guest ok
=yes, the share still works. What's the right syntax for valid users= "My
Domain\My Group"? Any thoughts?
Thanks,
John
Hi
You don't really need smb.conf to get group only entry.
Just have smb.conf with:
[share]
comment = Testing
path = /media/share
read only = No
chgrp My\ Group /media/share
chmod 0770 /media/share
chmod g+s /media/share
setfacl -d -Rm g::rw /media/share
Now, only members of My Group can get into the share, no matter what you
have in smb.conf. Once inside, any files created therein become group rw
for My Group members.
