I'm not as familiar with share level security, but,
here's what I dug up from the samba doc's.

First, depending on your client machine, you may have
to enable share level security on the client machine.
Check this doc for that.
http://us4.samba.org/samba/ftp/docs/htmldocs/using_samba/ch06_03.html

Second, try adding mike to the username option on the
share itself. For instance - 
[share]
path = /home/samba/share
guest ok = no
writable = yes
username = mike, nobody

Also make sure that samba has valid passwords stored
in it's smbpasswd file. You can add these with the
smbpasswd utility. Lastly, make sure you have read the
encryption.txt file ncluded with your samba docs. It's
possible for you to have valid passwords declined due
to encryption issues. If that's not it, perhaps you
could forward the error you receive in your logs when
mike tries to write or access the /image and /public
shares.

[newbie] SAMBA / Permissions

2002-04-09 Thread T.

Hi,

System:

LM8.2
Samba 2.2.3a

Samba works perfect under the current setup. I have a simple share level
system where remote machines login as nobody:nogroup.

However, my local user mike cannot write to these areas.

They have access to two areas: /home/public and /home/image

   4 drwxrwxr-x2 nobody   nogroup  4096 Apr  7 19:54 image/
   4 drwxr-xr-x   32 mike mike 4096 Apr 10 08:18 mike/
   4 drwxrwxr-x   10 nobody   nogroup  4096 Apr  8 15:06 public/

as you can see I: chmod -R  g+w /home/image & /public

and I added user mike to group nogroup.

According to my limited knowledge this should now work. However, user
mike still cannot write to either of the directories.

Any ideas?

T.
