Hi All,
I have encountered following issue after everything worked fine for a year:
I have a unix directory /proj/admin which group ownership is UNIX group of
"engadm". In samba, I configured as following
# This one is /proj/admin
[admin]
comment = project admin
path = /proj/admin
writable = yes
valid users = @engadm
create mode = 0664
directory mode = 1775
case sensitive = yes
mangle case = yes
strict locking = yes
The "admin" share only works when I have a UNIX account with primary group ID is
"engadm". If I have an unix acccount with "engadm" as secondly UNIX group(which means
the primary group is something else), it will keep prompting me usrname/passwd when I
try to mount the share on my PCs. Then no matter what username/passwd I try, it always
fails.
If I do $ ./smbclient //js1/kitsdev -U username%passwd
added interface ip=10.13.46.29 bcast=10.13.46.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Domain=[LOCERD01] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.3a]
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_WRONG_PASSWORD
If I change my unix account primary group to be "engadm", I'll have no issue:
./smbclient //js1/pdt2 -U username/passwd
added interface ip=10.13.46.29 bcast=10.13.46.255 nmask=255.255.255.0
Domain=[LOCERD01] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 2.2.3a]
smb: \>
I have to stresss again that this configuration worked fine until suddenly one day
issue came out. All samba configuration has not been changed before and after the
problem came along. Since I am a UNIX administrator, I do not have much idea what
happened to Windows environment. Please advise what could causes this failure.
Thanks
