samba config for group access
Having a bit of s samba config issue. Running RH 6.4, samba 3.5.10.
Samba host has joined the domain (net rpc)
The problem I'm having is that if I spec a user id (valid user) in the share, I don't get prompted for a password when trying to access it from a Windows host. If however in the share options I spec a group name (ie. valid user = @aiswf), I get prompted for an account and password. The user accounts and groups have been created on the samba server.
Why is a group share access behaving differently from a user share access. Am I missing a config/setup step ?
Below is my smb.conf
[global] workgroup = DEVENG server string = %h Samba File Server %v hosts allow = 127. 10. 172. smb ports = 139 445 # --------------------------- Logging Options ----------------------------- log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 20 log level = 3 # ----------------------- Domain Members Options ------------------------ security = domain encrypt passwords = yes passdb backend = tdbsam password server = * domain master = no wins server = 10.XXX.XX.XX,172.XX.XX.XXX dns proxy = yes deadtime = 10 # ----------------------- Browser Control Options ---------------------------- local master = no preferred master = no os level = 33 # -------------------------- Printing Options ----------------------------- load printers = no show add printer wizard = no # --------------------------- Filesystem Options --------------------------- map archive = no map hidden = no map read only = no map system = no store dos attributes = yes hide dot files = no #============================ Share Definitions ============================== [neteng] comment = Network Engineering Share path = /fs_neteng browseable = yes writable = yes valid users = @neteng dignarn [aiswf] comment = AIS Workflow Share path = /fs_aiswf browseable = yes writable = yes guest ok = yes admin users = arnoldr valid users = @aiswf
