Re: [Samba] Samba and Windows ACL Issue

Why should acl support be needed for a simple owner or group change?

The OP here was dealing with ACL operations, not just a simplefile/owner change.

Ross,

The fstab below shows that your file systems are NOT mounted with ACLsupport.

To gain ACL support you need:
1. A the ACL and EA functionality in the Linux kernel
2. To mount the file systems with ACL and XATTR support
3. Samba compiled and linked with the ACL and XATTR libraries

An example fstab entry to mount a file system with ACL and XATTRsupport is given here:


LABEL=/export/1    /export/1     ext3    defaults,acl,user_xattr 1 2

Cheers,
John T.

Many thanks

Hi all got a bit of and odd problem with ACL. Ive read up on a few
bits in the samba howto and read some threads on here about it.

Im not sure if this is a bug, something ive not done, doing wrong etc
so anyone that could shed some light on it that would be great.

Basically the windows box handles all user account processing and
during creating a script for all this it will attempt to change the
permissions on the HOME directory to the user in question

(i.e C:\>cacls Z:\Students\2005\sb05 /G sb05:F /T /E)

But I always get Access is denied. Even tho its currently owned by
administrator.

Trying the "manual" way, and the ways listed in the offical samba
howto guide produces similar results.


Sounds as though you don't have POSIX ACLs enabled on the Samba share
mount.

The only way I can change the owner is to go into linux and use the
chown command.

After that its set to the correct user and all is well... Except by

doing it by hand kinda rains on my lovely automatic user creationscript!


Samba.log file shows me no errors, as do any of the others. If there a
switch/option I need to enable?

Below is smb.conf

Im running RHES3, Samba 3.0.14a and Windows 2k3 AD in mixed Mode.


[...]

The OS has ACL support as standard, but it's not enabled by default.
What does /etc/fstab look like for the share mount?
