I have a set of Linux boxes with (nearly) working Samba configurations.
Windows users can get in and work with shares. My one problem is that the
local user "joe" is not the same as the domain user that logs into Samba. And
that means that users cannot access their own home directories, unless I relax
the Linux permissions.
This is not surprising, given the way Samba was configured -- but the question
now is "how can I fix it?" I have played with the usermap, but haven't gotten
that to work. And I would prefer not to have to map every user on every target
box; there are a lot of them. It seems likely that there should be a global
solution to this.
The evidence for the problem is clear. Below is a listing of directory
containing two files: one created under by the local Linux user, and one
created by the same user on a Windows box connecting to the share:
$ ls -l
total 4
-rw-r--r-- 1 joe users 3 Mar 2 03:40 File_Created_In_Linux
-rwxrw-rw- 1 joe domain users 3 Mar 1 13:12 File_Created_In_Windows
$ ls -n
total 4
-rw-r--r-- 1 12903 100 3 Mar 2 03:40 File_Created_In_Linux
-rwxrw-rw- 1 16777217 16777216 3 Mar 1 13:12 File_Created_In_Windows
And here is the Samba config:
[global]
workgroup = XXXXX
realm = XXXXX.com
netbios aliases = XXXXX
security = DOMAIN
password server = XXXXX
wins server = XXXXX
ldap ssl = no
idmap uid = 16777216-33554431
idmap gid = 16777216-33554431
template homedir = /usr/acct/%U
template shell = /bin/tcsh
winbind cache time = 5
winbind use default domain = Yes
create mask = 0777
directory mask = 0777
[myshare]
path = /shares/test
read only = No
[homes]
read only = No

Thanks in advance for any light you might shine on this.
