[Samba] Linux/Samba for the first time
I'm setting up a linux mashine with samba for filesharing to windowsclients. I use samba 3 and Linux rh9 and swat. We are just a small group of trusted people. I need to create a folder with rights for any windowsuser in the workgroup to: -connect to and add subfolders and files. -read all the subfolders and files. -change in subfolders and files. Basicly we will store the economysystem, filemaker pro server and officefiles. Finally we will back it up to a tape drive or to another media. Is there no easy way to make a share without restrictions?

You can add this line to the [share] part in smb.conf: force user = root This will give anay valid user for the share root permissions.

Another way is to use guest account = root in global and guest ok = yes in the shares (might work in global, too) you want to give full access to. This is crude but it works. After you get experience, you could easily tighten up security, (which you really should do) but it is nice to get things working.
