Hello, I've run into an issue with the TKL Fileserver App. I can create some shares that work just fine, and then there are shares that will not allow me access them despite having the same samba and linux permissions. Here's an example.
From my smb.conf file:
[Project A Share] comment = Project A directory mode = 770 create mode = 770 writeable = yes write list = @project_a_group path = /srv/ProjectA browseable = yes [Project B Share] comment = Project B directory mode = 770 create mode = 770 writeable = yes write list = @project_b_group path = /srv/ProjectB browseable = yes
Directory Listing for Shares:
drwxrws--- 3 root project_b_share 4096 Feb 26 23:10 ProjectB drwxrws--- 2 root project_a_share 4096 Feb 26 23:07 ProjectA
Performing a groups myuser shows that I am a member of project_b_share and project_a_share. I have also made sure to utilize the "Convert Users" script and I clearly see that my user is a valid user.
So, why does one work and the other not? I am stumped unless something is happening with Samba such that an error stops the processing of some script somewhere. But I am pretty much using this out of the box, so I don't think I broke anything.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
UPDATE: It appears to be an issue with group settings. If I change the folder permissions in linux to 777, I can write just fine. This isn't a good idea, so I will have to find an alternative. Upon further inspection, I had created a samba group called project_a_share. Once I deleted this group, I could write to it. Why is this?
I suggest having a look at the Samba logs
