I need to be more careful in reading the chaneglogs. All the release candidates from -rc4 to -rc6 had other minor little "gotchas" which would make me cautious about using them on productions machines. It's now up to -rc7. Hopefully, this will be the last. I think even Marcelo is tiring of the many release candidates for 2.4.21. :-) bob -- bob billsonemail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ham: kc2wz /) [EMAIL PROTECTED] beekeeper -8|||} "Níl aon tinteán mar do thinteán féin." --DorothyLinux geek \)

Re: File Group Ownership in Samba
Hi! Here is an example from one of my Samba machines; [foo] comment = Foo Directories path = /var/foo browseable = yes writeable = yes write list = @samba @adm create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0474 directory security mask = 0777 inherit permissions = yes max connections = 10 hide dot files = no guest ok = no force user = foo force group = foo In this example, do you see the force user and force group entries above? Whenever someone creates a file under this share, it always is owned by user:group foo:foo. And, by including this group for each user, I can permit them access to perhaps read or write files, or have any access at all. I would recomend that you read the smb.conf man page again. There are a lot of options in there, but be patient. After you have read it all, try again.

sympa/pg/debian install woes
I'm trying to install Sympa on a Debian(woody) machine but not getting
far :-(
I've tracked it down to this line in install-pg-db, which is called from
the postinst script:
# Get a sysid
my $usesysid = $dbh->do("SELECT MAX(usesysid) + 1 FROM pg_shadow");
That always returns 1 (and a subsequent attempt to create a user with
usesysid=1 (correctly) fails). As I have in use the usesysid values 1,
100, 101 I figure the correct answer is 102 (which is what I get if I put
that SQL into psql).
The postinst emits the diagnostic "...I could not
connect to the database server. ..." - which doesn't seem reasonable as
the same $dbh is previously used to (successfully) create the sympa
database:
# Create database
eval {$dbh->do("CREATE DATABASE $database")};
What's really odd is the output from some diagnostic prints:
# Get a sysid
my $foo = $dbh->do("SELECT usesysid FROM pg_shadow WHERE
usename='sql-ledger'");
print "Max Id: $foo\n";
my $usesysid = $dbh->do("SELECT MAX(usesysid) + 1 FROM pg_shadow");
print "Calculated Id: $usesysid\n"; #DEBUG
Gives these:
Max Id: 1
Calculated Id: 1
I know that I could hack in a "$usesysid = 102", but that would (a) be
cheating and (b) not flush out the root cause.
Any ideas on what's up here, or how I might usefully extract more
information?
Thanks,
Neale.

It introduces several possibilities to limit even root. This is mainly used to run several seperated virtual servers on one physical machine. Then you need to install the package vserver (it isn't in stable yet). Then you can use chbind to bind an application and all child processes to one ip. See man chbind for more details.

Or is better to authentificated against the ldap server? there is a way to authenticate windows-clients against the ldap server, but this is much client-work. simply use the samba-ldap installation as PDC and let the workstations join the domain. see Samba-LDAP-HOWTO.html in samba-doc or http://www.unav.es/cti/ldap-smb-howto.html buz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
