[Samba] Samba NTFS permissions

2003-12-08 Thread Hunsberger, Mike
Hi, I am new to this list.

Does samba 3 support ntfs permissions or a way to map them?
Creating a share for a user is easy but can you set different file
permissions in that share with separate ntfs permissions to give different
users permission to different areas of the share? This is on an Active
Directory network. Thank you.

PS: We are trying to save the state of Wisconsin some money by replacing our
Win 2000 file servers with samba servers!

Hi

Samba 3 now supports ACLs, it can either use POSIX ACL (kernel level) 
or a built-in engine (Correct me if I am wrong)

Using the builtin one, I heard many reports of people login in the 
domain as admins and setting the permissions using the windows file 
security dialog box. Note that you must compile Samba w/acls to enable 
this feature.

Hope it helps

You need to be using a Linux kernel with POSIX ACL support
compiled in, and a Samba compiled similarly.

This will allow you to do what you need.

Think of the taxpayers ! Convert the desktops to Linux also,
then you won't need the Samba servers :-).

true.. if you use a unix filesystem, but there's reasons to still use 
samba :)

samba with ssl would be much more secure (for several reasons) over nfs 
(and easier to use than the afs/etc).

We have some machines that I don't trust enough to give NFS access to (and 
I don't particulary like having to setup X number of exports).

come on.. samba works for *everything* :)
