Hi all again. Thanks for the replies etc but the issue isnt actually an ACL one. (of sorts) I can change permissions on the users/group already assigned to the directory/file, i.e if its already owned by Administrator and Domain Admins, but I cannot replace them. i.e as Administrator I cannot remove the user administrator and put in ross instead, which is what I need to do. Or even add ross to it.
Ive tried doing the net -S Server -UAdministrator rpc rights grant 'DEV-DOMAIN\Administrator' SeTakeOwnershipPrivilege to no avail. Is this a support function? As john had pointed out on a *nix system root can do anything. To prove this, on my current production system I logged on to a share as root, I could change permissions etc nps. This system however uses standard passwd/smbpasswd and not the AD im trying to implement. Any more thoughts or sugestions gratefully received, else it may be that I have to look at a pure windows environment :/ Cheers Ross -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
