Hi, When using lsof, I see that smbd changes ownership from the actual user who made the connection, to root. Also seeing odd behavior with certain files accessed from XP boxes suddenly becoming "read only" to the user mid edit, and appears to be related.
Ex: lsof output at 8:45 AM: smbd 11987 user1 cwd DIR 253,3 4096 704687 /home/Shares/Groups within a minute later, the same process apparently changes ownership: smbd 11987 root cwd DIR 253,3 4096 704687 /home/Shares/Groups packages: samba-swat-3.0.23c-1.fc5 samba-3.0.23c-1.fc5 Running winbind in domain mode. There's never a problem listing user and group info off of the Win2k domain controller using wbinfo. I see the docs indicate that if you specify "admin users" on a share, that all operations will be done as root, but I do not use this. My global and a typical share setup is below. I would appreciate any advice / insight here. Thank you.
