samba issue: one samba share without password prompting and the others with.
Hi All, I've been trying to configure samba on Solaris 10 to allow me to have one share that is open and writable to all users and have the rest of my shares password protected by a generic account.
If I set my security to user, my secured shares work just fine and prompt accordingly, but when I try to visit my "open" share, it prompts for a password. If I set my security to share, then my "open" share works as it should, but then my "secured" shares do not work at all! Could someone give me a hand?
global:
# workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name, eg: MIDEARTH
workgroup = xxx
# server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field
server string = xxx
# Security mode. Defines in which mode Samba will operate. Possible
# values are share, user, server, domain and ads. Most people will want
# user level security. See the Samba-HOWTO-Collection for details.
security = user
# This option is important for security. It allows you to restrict
# connections to machines which are on your local network. The
# following example restricts access to two C class networks and
# the "loopback" interface. For more examples of the syntax see
# the smb.conf man page
; hosts allow = 192.168.1. 192.168.2. 127.
# If you want to automatically load your printer list rather
# than setting them up individually then you'll need this
; load printers = yes
# you may wish to override the location of the printcap file
; printcap name = /etc/printcap
# on SystemV system setting printcap name to lpstat should allow
# you to automatically obtain a printer list from the SystemV spool
# system
; printcap name = lpstat
# It should not be necessary to specify the print system type unless
# it is non-standard. Currently supported print systems include:
# bsd, cups, sysv, plp, lprng, aix, hpux, qnx
; printing = cups
# Uncomment this if you want a guest account, you must add this to /etc/passwd
# otherwise the user "nobody" is used
guest account = nobody
shared defs:
[app]
path = /d/biapps/
writable = yes
browsable = yes
create mask = 775
valid users = weblogic
[temp]
path = /w/temp
public = yes
writable = yes
browsable = yes
create mask = 775
guest ok = yes
guest only = yes
Thanks guys

There is a subfolder under /u02/pub called /u02/pub/expenses/hardware that I need to make read only. How do I do this? I am new to using Samba.

Hi everyone! I'm trying to run a script when a folder is shared and when it stop being shared.
Is there something like .start_share or .stop_share scripts in Samba where I could run some commands?:confused:

SMBGET(1) User Commands SMBGET(1)
NAME
smbget - wget-like utility for download files over SMB
SYNOPSIS
smbget [-a, --guest] [-r, --resume] [-R, --recursive] [-u, --username=STRING] [-p, --password=STRING] [-w, --workgroup=STRING]
[-n, --nonprompt] [-d, --debuglevel=INT] [-D, --dots] [-P, --keep-permissions] [-o, --outputfile] [-f, --rcfile] [-q, --quiet]

DESCRIPTION
This tool is part of the samba(7) suite.
smbget is a simple utility with wget-like semantics, that can download files from SMB servers. You can specify the files you would like to
download on the command-line.
The files should be in the smb-URL standard, e.g. use smb://host/share/file for the UNC path \\HOST\SHARE\file.
OPTIONS
-a, --guest
Work as user guest
-r, --resume
Automatically resume aborted files
-R, --recursive
Recursively download files
-u, --username=STRING
Username to use
-p, --password=STRING
Password to use
-w, --workgroup=STRING
Workgroup to use (optional)
-n, --nonprompt
Don't ask anything (non-interactive)
-d, --debuglevel=INT
Debuglevel to use
-D, --dots
Show dots as progress indication
-P, --keep-permissions
Set same permissions on local file as are set on remote file.
-o, --outputfile
Write the file that is being downloaded to the specified file. Can not be used together with -R.
-O, --stdout
Write the file that is being downloaded to standard output.
-f, --rcfile
Use specified rcfile. This will be loaded in the order it was specified - e.g. if you specify any options before this one, they might
get overridden by the contents of the rcfile.
-q, --quiet
Be quiet
-v, --verbose
Be verbose
-b, --blocksize
Number of bytes to download in a block. Defaults to 64000.
-?, --help
Show help message
--usage
Display brief usage message
-U, --update
Download only when remote file is newer than local file or local file is missing.
-e|--encrypt
This command line parameter requires the remote server support the UNIX extensions or that the SMB3 protocol has been selected.
Requests that the connection be encrypted. Negotiates SMB encryption using either SMB3 or POSIX extensions via GSSAPI. Uses the given
credentials for the encryption negotiation (either kerberos or NTLMv1/v2 if given domain/username/password triple. Fails the connection
if encryption cannot be negotiated.
SMB URLS
SMB URL's should be specified in the following format:
smb://[[[domain;]user[:password@]]server[/share[/path[/file]]]]
smb:// means all the workgroups
smb://name/ means, if name is a workgroup, all the servers in this workgroup, or if name is a server, all the shares on this server.
EXAMPLES
# Recursively download 'src' directory
smbget -R smb://rhonwyn/jelmer/src
# Download FreeBSD ISO and enable resuming
smbget -r smb://rhonwyn/isos/FreeBSD5.1.iso
# Recursively download all ISOs
smbget -Rr smb://rhonwyn/isos
# Backup my data on rhonwyn
smbget -Rr smb://rhonwyn/
BUGS
Permission denied is returned in some cases where the cause of the error is unknown (such as an illegally formatted smb:// url or trying to
get a directory without -R turned on).

This man page is correct for version 3 of the Samba suite.
