In Section I.2 under Worked Examples the subsection on Secure Read-Write File and Print Server has uncorrect permissions for the public share. According to the paragraph above the public drive should allow authenticated users only to store files, but: ... [public] comment = Data path = /export force user = maryo force group = users guest ok = Yes read only = No ... allows anyone (i.e., guest) to write/delete files too. I'm a newbie, so I don't know how to set this up correctly, such that guest only has read, and authenticated users have read/write. But for now I have remedied this example setup by adding 'valid users = bla, blue, ble' such that only they have access to the share at _all_. Please address this in the docs so as not to mislead any other newbies like me... ;), and if You could suggest a way to have a share with read only for guest, and all access for valid users. Thanks, Mike
Passing to jht since this is docs related.
That was a booboo. Sorry. I removed the "guest ok" parameter. - John T.
Second part of my bug report was a quick question ;) : How do we setup a secure share that has _read_ _only_ for the guest? Suggestions? Mike (In reply to comment #2) > That was a booboo. Sorry. > > I removed the "guest ok" parameter. > > - John T. >
