Re: [Samba] Re: Write Once Read Many share with samba
Hello all, I've knocked together a vfs module that does this, basically a worm with the exception of directories. directories can be renamed if they're empty, otherwise it's readonly. I'm not sure what the policy is with posting attachments so won't include it here, give me a shout if your interested in it. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

This was my thoughts. Samba is running on a FreeBSD 6.3 AMD64 server, filesystem is UFS. I don't know of any ACL tools... How about a VFS module that overrides just open, rmdir, rename and unlink? unlink/rmdir/rename becomes a no-op, open for write fails if the file exists? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
Re: [Samba] Recycle module... Stable?

Well, I did a search on the entire set of folders we share on samba, and didn't find anything like what they said it was called. Not even in the recycle folders. Which is why I asked about it's stability. Of course it's probably more likely it never existed where they though it was... They'll probably find it on a flash drive or something ;-) At least now I know someone is using that module and hasn't had any true problems. I can feel happier about having it enabled. TB I know it doesn't help now, but we see this accidental explorer drag/drop enough to always enable the full_audit module on all our writable shares, and have it syslog the result. It makes life a breeze when files go missing, especially when they don't quite get the name right... vfs objects = full_audit full_audit:priority = NOTICE full_audit:facility = LOCAL5 full_audit:prefix = %I|%U|//%L/%S full_audit:success = rmdir unlink rename full_audit:failure = none At least this way you know where it went, which machine did it, and when... -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
Re: [Samba] Multiple homedir entries in smb.conf ?
Try UnionFS under linux, assuming you don't have any user home directory collisions across the servers. J. Strohschnitter wrote: is it possible to add multiple homedir templates to smb.conf ? I have a running linuxsystem where homefilesets are mounted from different windows-servers to subdirs like: /home/server01/home/USERNAME /home/server02/home/USERNAME /home/server03/home/USERNAME The users come via winbind. In the smb.conf the entry for the homedir: template homedir = /home/%U So how is it possible to add /home/serverXX/home/%U to the smb.conf ? What about mounting with the bind option all the /home/$SERVER/home/$USERNAME dirs in /home/$USERNAME Hi don't know about bind-options while mounting. Is it possible to mount multiple mountpoints to one directory ? The windows-shares are mounted via smbfs with the entry in the smbfstab: //server01/home /home/server01/home/ cifs username=XX,password=XX,rw, gid=users,workgroup=XX,fmask=0700 [..] Is there a chance to mount all server[01-03] to one moutpoint ? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] explorer.exe MSDFS problems
Hello all, We've had to roll out a dfs stub server to cope with a migration, and we've noticed that explorer.exe will fail whenever a UNC path that traverses the graft point is pasted into the address bar. Start-Run works fine, ie7 works fine, For example, \\server1\share\graft is a dfs redirect to: \\server2\share\fun and under that server2 path is the directory structure: a/b/c/d Pasting the UNC path \\server1\graft\a\b\c into the explorer.exe address bar causes: Windows cannot find '\\server1\graft\a\b\c' Check the spelling and try again. However, pasting \\server1\graft into the explorer address bar, and navigating through works as expected. As noted above, Start-Run works as expected, ie7 works as expected. It's obviously some different handling in explorer.exe, is anyone aware of either a samba fix/patch (oh please) or a registry fix for explorer? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
