I would recommend creating a "dummy" user that is disabled and using these uid/gid values in the "force *" directives. tom.

The way we do it here - assuming you aren't using your samba server as a PDC, in which case I guess you would end up having to do it differently - is to use the: force group = share-level option, then add all your users to that group, and make the share group write/readable... This should solve that one -Thom -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://slug.org.au/lists/listinfo/slug
[SLUG] TR-3 tape and Samba Permissions Q's
Hi, I have an Exabyte Eagle TR-3 tape drive. How can I tell what device Redhat Linux has assigned to this device??? Anyone used one of these tape drives? also I have samba shares set up but when a user creates a directory or file on the server from their windows machines the permissions are set as per the user so no one else can access them. How do I make the permissions open so all can access when a file or directory is created?? or am I missing something ? regards Alister Alister Waller (B.
