I've tried it with users and it works, but now I can't set it for groups. I've created a Unix group with the denied users and I've written in /etc/samba/smbusers:

denied = @denied

also in smb.conf I've set

username map = /etc/samba/smbusers

but I still can't see that group in the "Select user or group" dialog on Windows

I use Samba 3.0.13

Oh yes, with an LDAP backend (which I use) you need to give your groups a Samba SID so that windows can see them - otherwise they're just Unix groups ... (and I had a very similar problem with windows being unable to see most of the groups). Now if I can only remember how I did this again. And I just notice that you don't mention LDAP anywhere, ...

OH yes, I remember now (after I checked my scripts)

the command

net groupmap add ntgroup="<NT Group Name>" unixgroup="<unix group name>" type=d

set's the mapping up for you. I think that'll work for any backend database. and the command

net groupmap list

will show you the current mappings between unix groups and windows groups.


Anyway, that isn't so important. Thanks very much.


You're welcome. I'm happy to help :)
