Hey
So I switched to ubuntu server 9.10 and I need to configure samba. What I
want to do is share folders in which only the owner has access to. For
instance I want to share my external drive and I am the owner of that folder
and only if I put my credentials based off of the server information
regarding my account. Now I also want possibly other groups to have access
as well (this does not have to be just this folder in general), essentially
I want it to use acls. Below is the config file that I currently have. When
I was using open suse it allowed be to use current users on the system as
users for samba.
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
encrypt passwords = yes
wins support = no
max log size = 2000
passdb backend = tdbsam
[homes]
comment = %u's Home Directory
browsable = no
read only = no
map archive = yes
[My_Book]
comment = This is the My book with the movies/tvshows
inherit acls = Yes
path = /media/My\ Book
guest ok = no
read only = No
# write = Yes
# valid users = nadim
[common]
comment = This is the common forlder on the local hard drive
inherit acls = yes
path = /home/common
guest ok = no
read only = no
# write = yes
valid users = nadim grant
