I am having a problem getting Samba to use the linux group membership
when following a symlink.
On the Linux side, I have a soft link from the user's home directory to
the shared directory.
ln -s /home/shared/testgroup testshare
In the smb.conf I have:
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = no
writable = yes
valid users = %S
force create mode = 0660
delete readonly = yes
map archive = no
case sensitive = yes
follow symlinks = yes
[testshared]
comment = Test Shared
browsable = no
path = /home/shared/testgroup
valid users = @test
writable = yes
force create mode = 0660
force directory mode = 0771
force group = test
IF the user maps to the "testshared" share, it works perfectly (ie. uses
the group membership to give access). However, if they try to browse to
the testgroup "directory", it does not grant them access.
It shouldn't matter, but I have even changed the symlink 'file' to have
the user be the owner. Still no dice.
