Hi
Scenario:
user steve member of group called staff
share called 'reports' with permissions 0750 root:staff
When steve tries to access reports on xp or win7 he gets permission
denied. We have to set 'reports' to 0755 for steve to have access. No
amount of security tab work on the share in windows will allow him entry.
We only want members of the group staff in reports but we can't if we
have to set it 0755. The same scenario over kerberized nfs to Linux
clients respects the access fine.
Is this a spin off of the samba4 fileserver not being recommended at the
moment?
Yes
Will this be fixed with s3fs?
Yes
Will s3fs need a reprovision when available.
No. At most you will need to set some settings into the smb.conf, until
it is made the default.
I hope this clarifies things.

Hi Andrew, hi everyone
Thank you for taking the time to answer these points. Three positives.
Excellent news.
Rather than wait, could we know what the smb.conf settings are for s3fs?
In the wiki you mention s3fs problems with gpo's. Well, the only gpo we
have at the moment is not installing upgrades every time we switch off
so that we can install manually when we have seen what they are.
Cheers,
Steve
