Hi,
I'm running RH9 with samba 3.0. Kernel is 2.4-20. I've joined my samba machine to my active directory, winbind is up and working, and share permissions seem to be working fine.
However I'm not able to modify any share or file permissions using windows mmc or right clicking the share in windows explorer. I can see that everyone has full control and root exists, but the permissions are not the same as listed in smb.conf. I've made sure that acl support is enabled in my smb.conf, by putting the line in, although i think this is the default, as if i look in swat, it showed this as being true already.
I installed samba from the rpm, and after having a look at the samba newsgroup, it seems the problem maybe that samba was not compiled with acl support or my kernel may need a patch for acl support, or both?
Could somebody let me know if this is the case, and which is the more likely. I've always found it more tricky compiling from stratch, and wondered if the rpm builds include all the configure options when made (not sure on rpms really - explaination would be helpful!), or if perhaps my kernel is at fault.
I' ve never patched a kernel before, so again a little advice would be great - tricky? Am i likely to run into any major problems.
Thanks
Mark
