It looks like foobar is being mapped to root. There are several ways that this can happen. My first suspect would be that force user = root has been put in the smb.conf file by a gui, and the change only took place after the restarting of samba. (only because this happened to me once.) My second suspect, (which is more likely) would be that smbpasswd was munged during the upgrade. A third possibility is that the user shows up as admin users = foobar, admin, troy For more useful help, the entire smb.conf file would probably need to be known. > > Thanks > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" > _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
