Re: [Samba] Re: very very weird problem, Samba completely broken

[Huck]

Also...which Distro are you installing this on?
I installed on a CentOS 4 and it was VERY different than both my Debian 
and FC4 installs...

Hi Eric

I would be inclined to start small and get bigger.  Look in the official 
HowTo at the chapter Fast Start: Cure for Impatience.  In my hard copy, 
example 2.3.1 lists an anonymous Read-Only Server Configuration.  In fact, 
work through that chapter and see what works/doesn't work.


If it works, then try building up bit by bit, possibly changing the security 
from share, to user - and trying again, and so on.


Cheers,
Steve :)

Often times 3rd party articles speak in something other than 'Know it 
all God-speak' and break it down on more simple terms.

Since the official Samba documentation is authoritative and actually
covers this subject, pointing to another 3rd party for reference is
likely to cause confusion...especially when a confused administrator
hasn't consumed the official documentation to begin with.

[Samba] installing software as a user

[Huck]

After joining machines to my Samba domain (in a school setting)some 
accounting software no longer functions as it needs to be run as the 
user that installed the software.


So I uninstalled the software and attempted re-install as that user, but 
was told via a pop-up error message that the user did not have rights to 
install.


The user exists on the local machine(XP Pro) and has administrative 
privileges, but apparently when logging into the domain it changes the 
user's effective rights.


Is there some simple 'user configuration' on the Samba side that I need 
to do with 'smbpasswd' or with the linux groups to allow users to 
install software?


Thanks,
