Hi, I've a question about the syntax of the valid users option. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Here is the Background: samba 3.0.4 Linux as Domain Member Active Directory, not in Native Mode Compiler opions: --with-winbind --with-pam --with-smbmount The goal is to authenticate via the Windows Domain and allow access via Windows groups. The syntax in my smb.conf looks like this: valid users = DOMAIN\SOMEGROUP However, it doesn't work no matter what. I can authenticate individual users thusly: valid users = DOMAIN\SOMEUSER I've read about the "@" "+" and "&" syntax, but they only seem to represent Unix & Nis groups. Is there another way to represent Windows groups? Or is my config the culprit? Here's the conf file: smb.conf: [global] # workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name workgroup = DOMAIN # WINS service winbind uid = 10000-20000 winbind gid = 10000-20000 winbind enum users = yes winbind enum groups = yes wins server = XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX password server = * server string = SAMBA log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 0 log level = 10 security = domain auth methods = guest sam ntdomain encrypt passwords = yes local master = no dns proxy = no [SOMESHARE] comment = Some Share path = /d1/articles public = no writable = yes printable = no valid users = DOMAIN\SOMEGROUP -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
