Hi all,

I haven't found any clear information yet about that problem.

I'm trying the following workaround, however. If anybody believes it's not the Right Way To Do It, please do not hesitate to tell me.

What I need: regular users to be able to use smbstatus, because they need to know what files are in use

What I did: I changed the group of smbstatus to smbnull, put its setid bit on, changed the group and permissions on the locks directory and all the .lck files to be writable by smbstatus.

This makes smbstatus work for regular users as it did before the upgrade.
Is it a security issue?

Laurent
