hey friends, i have setup the linux box (FC3) with samba with security = domain and password server = s1.sun.com(internal) I have created one folder in which i have created some directories.There are different types of users in my company some in development, some in administration , som e in top management.I have created some folders in which users can put their data to share among their colleagues or team. What happens is that when somebody clicks on samba server all the folders which i have explicitly mentioned in the smb.conf are shown .Whereas what i want is that only those folders should come when the user access the samba server on which he has the right to access it. Suppose james is a user having access rights on folders cpms, manager. Now when he clicks on the samba server he sees his home directory where he can put his data, a cpms folder which is shared among the other development team members(have set it with suid) and manager(have set it this also with suid) and all other folders (specified in smb.conf) on which he does not have the rights.He can't access those folders in which he don't have the rights but i don't want to show the james those folders on which he does not have any kind of right. Ideally is should be when james accesses the samba server he should see his home directory,his cpms and manager folder nothing else.So that he should know that he can access and only have access to these folders. I tried with u% variable but this variable works for only primary group not for secondary group.I hope that many of u have faced the same problem. Please anyone of you can give me solution.
