This problem appeared to have been sorted, but came back today. I have set the
directives valid
users and force group.
Any advice on what log level setting I should set to try and pick this problem
up in the logs?
Is there any plans to improve the on-line help for problem solving with Samba?
How about a
website/wiki with columns:
Symptom | Perform check | Action if ok | Action if fail |
where the action columns could be hyperlinked to other symptom/check lines as
needed. At present it
is limited to the part V of the "The Official Samba-3 HOWTO and Reference
Guide" A Wiki would allow
such a table to be easily updated, probably with answered queries from the
mailing list. I regret I
do not have the available time to try working on such a project.

In my opinion even your no access folder should use a group. Make your
lowest permissions group nogroup then add all users to the group. Then
change smb conf user security entry to valid users = @nogroup

Is sgid on the top level dir?
Set for subdirectory cp, but not for projects as different directories
at that level require no access control
/projects/cp# ls -al

Also have you tried force group samba option?
My understanding is that this would force the same group for all the
PROJECT share, but I only want it for a subdirectory. Am I forced into
making projects/cp a separate share and using this samba option?
Mark.
Thanks for your response.

Hi
I have a samba server with tdbsam passwords, and a share, PROJECTS,
which is accessed by various XP home clients, the usenames and
passwords
being manually synced to the samba ones (less than 10 users, and only 4
workstations). There is one win2K machine, which is a domain member.
Subdirectories on PROJECTS have g+s set, so only users,
who are members of specific Linux groups, have access to the files
in them.
Recently, a laptop with XP professional has been connected, and the
user
on it can access the correct directories, but when he edits or
creates a
file, the group owner and file permissions are wrong:
/home/projects/cp/CP 2007# ls -alt
total 2932
drwxrwsrw- 4 daniel cp 4096 2007-11-24 12:35 .

The files he creates are therefore unusable until permissions are
changed.
Various searches on the internet and reading of the Samba documentation
have failed give me any idea on why this is happening, or how to put it
right. How is Samba managing to not respecting the Linux g+s bit?
How do I make this system work correctly? Can you assist?
Background information from earlier emails pruned.
The system id Debian Stable, up to date - including no SWAT as that depends on
the earlier version
of samba-doc - work in progress, I assume.
