I'm running samba 3.0.23 on red hat fedora core 6 with kernel 2.6.18-1.2849.fc6 (64-bit). I'm implementing a framework where new directories are added in an existing samba share with corresponding entries in /etc/group and am trying to restrict access to those directories to only users in that group. The clients connecting have user accounts on the samba server (there are no corresponding windows groups).
If I add users to these new groups and have been previously connected as one of those users, I am not able to access the newly allowed directory (with the user being a member of the group, but not the owner and permissions of 770 on the directory) unless I restart the samba processes or disconnect/reconnect. Is there a way around this problem without having to restart samba or having clients disconnect/reconnect? Thanks for any assistance.
