Hi list, the security=share setting does not behave as many admins expect. Access to all shares are mapped to the guest account and if the underlying unix permissions don't permit that access you get errors and the access doesn't work as expected.
Also is security=share a global parameter. This given, there is no distinction between guest and authenticated access per share possible yet. Further you can archieve the security=share setting behavior with setting -----smb.conf-------- [global] security = user # thats the default of current releases map to guest = bad user username map = /etc/samba/smbusers ----smbusers----- foo = * What reasons prevent removing 'security=share' ? -- Carsten Schaub <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
