I may be mistaken, but I believe the admin user= was taken out of Samba 3.0. In any 
case, for a variety of reasons, what I did was I chowned everything to a non root 
user, and have my would be admin connect as that, then I set force group = pub on the 
share and guest ok so that other people can still access the share and its files read 
only, and what not. Samba 3 also has new parameters something like writelist= and 
readlist= putting users in there gives them the ability to write to the share (I may 
not have the names exact)

Subject: [Samba] Samba 3.0.0: option admin user not working in smb.conf?


Hello List!

I successfully installed, configured and joined Samba 3.0.0 on Solaris 9 to Windows 
2000 Active Directory.

I tried to set the option admin user in smb.conf to user (ingres). After doing so the 
user isn't able to connect or browse to the Samba server anymore. Without this option 
the user just connects fine and is able to browse the Samba server. The goal is to 
have the user connect with root privileges to the Sambe share.

Any help would be great.
Thank you.
