Hello. I am making a new samba server. My old samba server was a RedHat machine (6.2) with samba 2.0.7 on it. My new samba server is a Gentoo machine with Samba 3.0.2a.
Aside from the fact that I am now using ADS instead of a traditional NT4 domain -- everything else is the same. I am keeping all the shares the same, I have synced all the gid's and uid's between the two machines, and I rsynced all the files and directories over from the old machine so that all the permissions and ownerships are the same between the two machines. For some reason, on the new machine, my "Force User =" is not working. All files are owned by root no matter what -- not the user that created them. For all of my common directories (each dept has a commond dir that only their dept can access) I have "Force User = %U". This is important, because without it the created files do not apply to the user's quota. I wish to stress that this did *not* happen with 2.0.7... it worked just as it should. Could someone please give me a hand here? TIA Chris Here is a clip from my smb.conf: [global] netbios name = PERSEUS socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=16384 SO_SNDBUF=16384 idmap uid = 10000-20000 winbind enum users = yes winbind gid = 10000-20000 winbind enum groups = yes dns proxy = no realm= MY.DOMAIN workgroup = MYWRKGRP netbios aliases = PERSEUS server string = PERSEUS security = ADS wins proxy = no map to guest = Bad User password server = sisyphus.my.domain name resolve order = lmhosts wins bcast time server = Yes os level = 0 preferred master = No local master = No domain master = No wins server = 10.10.10.10 hosts allow = 127.0.0.1, 10.10.10. oplocks = No follow symlinks = No printing = cups printcap name = cups load printers = yes ===================<snip>=============================== [Members] path = "/home/Members" valid users = +member_serv, chrisd, kurtk, administrator, jeffh admin users = chrisd, kurtk, administrator, jeffh read list = +member_serv, chrisd, kurtk, administrator, jeffh write list = +member_serv, chrisd, kurtk, administrator, jeffh force user = %U force group = member_serv read only = No create mask = 0660 directory mask = 2770 browseable = No =================</snip>================================= -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
