Package: netatalk Version: 2.0.2-3 Followup-For: Bug #185685 Additional Information:
Technically, world write access to .AppleDB was not needed. All users who will be using the share need write access to .AppleDB and the files it contains. It is sufficient to create a 'share' group containing all users you wish to give access, and set group read+write+sticky on .AppleDB and give group read+write to all files beneath it. For a bit on concealment, .AppleDB can be moved from the root of the share by setting dbpath in AppleVolumes.default explicitly to a hidden directory. # mkdir /var/hidden # chmod 700 /var/hidden dbpath:/var/local/hidden/.AppleDB/ Additional information can be had from the FAQ on http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/ http://netatalk.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/SpecialFilesFolders?PHPSESSID=3f04cf483b415d82f4de062091baf087 * * * * * Actually, with some minor tweaking to the package it looks like this bug could be closed now. If the rc netatalk script is modified to start the cnid_metad process and if the AppleVolumes.default share uses the dbd back end like this: /home/test "test" cnidscheme:dbd Then the .AppleDB directory will be created root.root 755, or what every you have your umask set to. * * * * * P.S. I'm trying to become a developer, so any suggestion or council are gladly received. -Sam George -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.10-1-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages netatalk depends on: ii cracklib2 2.7-15 A pro-active password checker libr ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcupsys2-gnutls10 1.1.23-7 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libdb4.2 4.2.52-18 Berkeley v4.2 Database Libraries [ ii libgssapi1-heimdal 0.6.3-8 Libraries for Heimdal Kerberos ii libpam-modules 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime 0.76-22 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libslp1 1.0.11a-2 OpenSLP libraries ii libssl0.9.7 0.9.7e-3 SSL shared libraries ii libwrap0 7.6.dbs-8 Wietse Venema's TCP wrappers libra ii netbase 4.20 Basic TCP/IP networking system ii perl 5.8.4-6 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
