In my smb.conf (below)... 1. I would like the ntadmins group to be able to see (and write to if necessary) all defined shares. The way I've done this is to share the root [export] of where I've put all my shares. Is that the easiest and recommended way? As it stand, members of ntadmins can connect, but not write to that location, and I think this is because /export is owned and group owned by root. I'm not a Unix expert, so how can I make this work without changing the ownership from root?
2. I would also like the ntadmins group to be able to see (and write to if necessary) all [homes]. Would I have to share the root of [homes] too, or is there another way to do this?
