[Samba] Multiple Samba accounts with the rights of a single Unix account?
Is it possible to have a standalone Samba server map different username/password pairs to a single Unix account? More specifically, I'll be using an external passdb (pdb-mysql or LDAP), and each username will only see a home directory with the same name. But I don't want to have to create a separate Unix account / UID for each username/password, the restriction by directory is enough. Instead, a single Unix account will be given rights to access all home directories, and I want Samba to use it for all username/password pairs. Is such a setup possible? The 'username map' option is not suitable, because the username is translated prior to authentication, so all usernames would share the same password. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
