Anyways, we have a new W2K box setup that is hosting the domain. Samba has been setup to use the domain for authentication (security = domain). Anyways, general shares, like the public shares and the home directory shares seem to work without a problem. (For the home directories, it seemed like I had to add the unix user / their directory for the proper access to appear, but that makes sense since a folder needs to exist to be shared).
However, I'm trying to setup some shared directories for each "department" and restrict access to only them. Perhaps I am doing this wrong and someone can correct me with what's wrong. Anyways, all I did was to add the "valid users" tag and I put in the username I was using. So the share in the smb.conf file was looking like this:
[Tech]
browseable = no
valid users = travman
writeable = yes
path = /home/groups/TechObviously, I want the shares hidden, thus browseable is no. Am I missing something in the setup? When I authenticate I do not get this group to show up in the list.
I do get some interesting messages in the log files though. Here's the one associated with my computer:
[2003/06/16 16:00:07, 0] smbd/password.c:domain_client_validate(1556)
domain_client_validate: could not fetch trust account password for domain MTC1
---------
the smbd.log file issues the following failure:
2003/06/16 16:00:07, 0] smbd/oplock_linux.c:linux_init_kernel_oplocks(287)
Failed to setup RT_SIGNAL_LEASE handler
-------
Anyways, if anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it. I'm apprehensive in actually switching everyone to the new servers until they are properly setup and tested.
Thanks!!!
