[Bug 5608] Re: SWAT expects to authenticate as root
Workaround from #8 (Ane-Pieter Wieringa) also solved the issue for me in Xubuntu 12.04. Thanks for the workaround although the status: Confirmed → Fix Released should really be status: Confirmed → Workaround Released IMHO. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/5608 Title: SWAT expects to authenticate as root To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/samba/+bug/5608/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Workaround from #8 solved the issue for me in ubuntu 10.10. But I don't know if this causes any unwanted side effects. BTW it seems really strange to me that this issue exists since more than four years now! It's impossible to use SWAT out of the box on ubuntu unless you searched the web. -- SWAT expects to authenticate as root https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/5608 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

Still a problem with 10.10 beta.

[Bug 5608] Re: SWAT expects to authenticate as root
The workaround is very simple. Just change the rights of the smb.conf file. The group should be adm and the rights for the group should be set to rw. In commands: sudo chgrp adm /etc/samba/smb.conf sudo chmod g+w /etc/samba/smb.conf Then it works for me. And yes, IMHO it is a bug in the swat package. -- SWAT expects to authenticate as root https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/5608 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is a bug assignee. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
