Adam, On the share you could make all files mode '644' and owned by user 'special'. Then use: force user = special force create mode = 644 force directory mode = 755 and maybe some other 'force' type parameters on that share. As long as special isn't in the writelist, things might work out for you. You could try something similar with 'force group'.
Good luck, Troy P.S. - man smb.conf search for "force user" or "force group" >>> "Adam Kennedy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 10/22/03 03:05PM >>> I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. Is there a way to setup samba to pretty much ignore file permissions, but allow the write list of users to modify files in shares? The problem I have, is users need permission through samba to modify web pages, but they need to NOT have permission when they FTP in or through shell. -- Northern Indiana ESC Adam Kennedy - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Linux Specialist / Network Administrator Phone: (574) 254-0111 x113 Toll Free: 800-326-5642 Fax: (574) 254-0148 -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
