Hi,
i have a samba-server running with several users and each of them has its own directory on the server. also, i did
some public-accessible directories. All user-directories work fine, but not the public-accessibles, which restricts
write-access.
what i've done.
- generating the users in /etc/passwd and merging them in group samba
- adding those users in /etc/samba/smbpasswd
- adding the sections in /etc/samba/smb.conf:
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
path = /users/%U
guest ok = no
browseable = yes
writable = yes
create mask = 775
[public]
path = /public
public = yes
writable = yes
create mask = 775
- mounting the shares with a shell-script after a successful samba-login:
sudo mount -t cifs -o credentials=/$HOME/.smb,rw,uid=$UID,gid=samba //server/$USER /home/$USER/winhome
sudo mount -t cifs -o credentials=/$HOME/.smb,rw,uid=$UID,gid=samba //server/public /home/$USER/winpublic
...so why, why, can't i write in my public folders???
ah yes...rights...
2 drwxrwxr-x 8 samba samba 4096 30. Jul 08:36 public
i just thougth, it should be enough, running the appropriate passwd-rights on the shares??
Thanks for your help!
Roger
Have you tried giving everyone write access?
Change the create mask
create mask = 777
