As root everything works correctly. The problem is I am receiving files in the apache server and need to store them on the a storage drive so that they can be processed by other computers. What I can't understand is that everything works correctly from windows. I log in as smbuser and have full access to everything I require. It's only the linux share that fails with automount. The permissions on the automount are as follows [EMAIL PROTECTED] niven]$ ls -la /share total 5 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 0 Mar 25 15:03 . drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 1024 Mar 25 09:02 .. drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 Mar 25 2003 webdocs If I'm reading this correctly then only root has write access but the frustrating thing is how do I get public access to this share when not logged in as root. "Barry, Christopher" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] have you tried to hard mount it as root? Why do you need the automounter? mount -t smbfs //192.168.69.202/webdocs /path/to/webdocs Also, what are the actual unix permissions on the share's unix folder? It's very odd that you can edit as smbuser, but not create. -- Christopher Barry Manager of Information Systems InfiniCon Systems http://www.infiniconsys.com -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Niven [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, March 24, 2003 11:44 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Samba] Mapping samba shares to a second linux box Hi, I have a very frustrating problem and I can't seem to find a solution. I am running redhat 8.0GPL and samba 2.2.8 on two linux boxes. The first linux box is my storage (used by multiple pc's). The second is my web-server running apache and php. The web-server recieves files which are meant to be stored to the first linux box and processed by other computers on the network. The following is the smb.conf file. [global] encrypt passwords = yes guest account = smbuser hide unreadable = yes hide dot files = yes log level = 3 log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log netbios name = myserver security = user server string = "Development Storage" socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 time server = yes wins support = yes workgroup = myworkgroup [webdocs] browseable = yes create mode = 0666 directory mode = 0777 directory mask = 0775 guest ok = yes guest only = yes path = /share/webdocuments read only = no I can connect to the webdocs directory from a windows box, browse read, edit and create files/directories. on the second linux box I use automout as follows file:auto.master /share /etc/auto.share --timeout=600 file:auto.share webdocs -fstype=smbfs,username=smbuser,password=smbuser://192.168.69.202/we bdocs The problem is the automount seems to work, the directory is available and I can browse, view and edit the files. However I cannot create files in the in the share unless I am logged in as root. This means that I cannot recieve files with PHP and push them off to the storage server. I have tried different settings all to no avail. I have tried everything I can think of and can't get this to work. Can anybody help me.
