Dear all I have a samba PDC (3.0.21c) with openldap (2.3.19) with 2 domain Member Servers(samba 3.0.21c) with ACL support i use domain member servers as file servers . all my clients are windows 2000 professional. i have the following scenario at my I have created 3 groups, "prj1team", "prj1mgr", "prj1engg". i have created folder called "myproject" in a samba share called projects. myproject has a subdirectory called "alldepts".
now, no one can create files/folder in myproject directory but they can create a files and folder in alldepts folder. but i don't want anybody to delete the folder alldepts. myproject(rx)prj1mgr,prj1engg | ----alldepts (rwx)prj1mgr,prj1engg | ---- files/folders i have set like this setfacl -m g:prj1team:rx myproject setfacl -m g:prj1mgr:rx myproject setfacl -m g:prj1engg:rx myrproject setfacl -m g:prj1mgr:rwx myproject/alldepts setfacl -m g:prj1engg:rwx myrproject/alldeps in the above permissions, people in group "prj1mgr"and "prj1engg" are able to creat files/folders in alldepts. and when they are in "myproject" directory and try to delete folder "alldepts", it gives error access denied . so far so good, this is what i want. but when the user of group "prj1mgr" and "prj1engg" delete folder "alldepts", it says access denied but it deletes all the files and folder inside the "alldepts" directory . ie it denies the user to delete "alldepts" directory but it does not deny the user to delete all the files and folders inside the alldepts.. Actually what i need is the folder "alldepts" is used by both groups "prj1mgr" and "prj1engg" to create files and folder and both these groups can delete each other files. but i want them to delete file after changing to that directory (alldepts) , not from outside. since i have mentioned setfacl -m g:prj1mgr:rx myproject setfacl -m g:prj1engg:rx myrproject it does not allow to delete folder alldepts, but it deletes all files in alldepts, that i don't want to happen.
