Installation and Upgrades / Manually editing smb.conf - impact on GUI admin

« on: November 02, 2010, 04:07:25 pm »

Hello

Please advise as to whether editing the samba config will conflict with the GUI interface and if so, how to make changes so that no conflicts occur. I'd like to change the general options (not the shares etc) in order to experiment with improving performance.

ebox 1.4.8 installed from ebox ISO.

Thanks

Installation and Upgrades / Samba: non-admin users cannot write to shares [RESOLVED]

« on: July 02, 2010, 01:21:28 pm »

Hi there

I'm using an up-to-date system, running ebox 1.4.4.

I have added users to the 'everyone' group and given the 'everyone' group read and write access to the share /home/samba/shares/projects.

The problem:

WinXP users who are not admin users cannot write to the share, despite read/write being configured.

Samba config: http://www.pastie.org/1027959

Possible caveat (quotas on filesystems?):

Any clue as to why users can't write to the share, even though they're configured to have write access? Has ebox failed to update the LDAP DB properly?

Thanks
