samba / NT permissions?

Post by steve mcada » Sat, 16 Jan 1999 04:00:00


I have a 2-system micronet.  One is NT 4.0, the other is S.u.S.E. 5.3.
These are connected via ethernet.

I can ping in both directions.  I am successfully doing the samba
mounts of 2 NT shares during Linux startup.  Of the 3 Linux users, all
3 can see files on both NT shares.  However, only root can
delete/create/modify files on NT.  Also when I click on Network
Neighborhood on NT, which shows my Linux system, it says "network path
can not be found".

So...

1)  When NT tries to look at network neighborhood, is it trying to do
a Linux login of some sort?  I have matching userids on NT and Linux
with matching passwords.  Does it use the current NT userid to attempt
to access Linux, or what?  Also I have set the registry "patch" for
plain-text passwords which is what I am using in the startup mounts.

2.  One of the 2 shares on NTis set up giving Full access, and the
other to give Read access, to all users in my NT Linux local group.  I
am mounting these shares on linux as /winnt/linux-port (full access
granted on NT side) and /winnt/linux-stuff (read access granted on NT
side).  The intent is for all my Linux users to be able to read from
both, or write on the linux-port share.  I've tried chown and chmod
against the mount-points but samba seems to override that.  Not sure
what else to try at this point.

Thanks for any clues on this.  -steve

1. Samba/NT permissions - similarities and differences??

We have a program that relies on permissions to decide whether or not to
display a directory's contents to a user.  For instance:

root
  --dir1
    --dir1a
  --dir2
    --dir2a

If a user had permissions (usually through group membership) to read dir1
but not dir2, they would be able to see the files in dir1 and (depending
upon permissions) dir1a.

We now use a program to recurse through the directories (starting at root)
and attempt to read files in each of the directories we find.  If the
results are empty, we know that we shouldn't display the contents.

It doesn't seem that SAMBA would allow something like this, at least not
from what we've been able to glean from the docs.

Can anybody shed some light on this?

Thanks
