I have been playing with samba for a short time. I am not a programmer but a I have some questions on if acls within samba are possible, regardless of acl's in the file system or kernel. In samba now, you can have read list or write list and say this user and/or group has write and/or this user and/or group has read only. This is a scaled down version of an acl. What if they created a folder called acl's and had one file called no access, one file called read, write, change, and full. An entry inside these files could look similar to: /data = @domain admin, john, steve /data/accounting = @domain admin, @accounting, bob
if these entries were in the change file then samba would restrict him accordingly. I have been trying to get acl's to work and it has been difficult to work. I have been thinking that maybe samba could do this for us without having to count on other pieces of software. I am only asking so please dont take this the wrong way. If it is possible I would like to help make it happen. I am not sure how I can help because I am not a programmer, but if there is anything I will be willing to pitch in. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
