Hi all.
Management here wants to restrict users from deleting files via Samba. NTFS is able to restrict just delete permissions, but still allow new files to be created and old ones changed. But I've come to the conclusion this isn't possible with standard UNIX file permissions, and unfortunately Red Hat does not yet support ACLs on any file systems.
In Samba's documentation I don't see any indication that a delete=no type option exists for shares, which surprised me. Am I missing something?
If not, is there perhaps a compile-time directive to disallow file deletion?
Otherwise, could someone perhaps point me to what I'd want to change in the source to accomplish this?
you can write a vfs module that overloads the unlink function and returns access denied when the unlink function is called.
