Force file ownership of a domain user in samba Share
Hi,
I am using RedHat 6 and ,I am trying to force a domain user (from Windows AD) to take ownership of a file when it is created, or copied on a Samba share. I have managed to get this working for the root user using the code below:
I have tried to type the command like i did with the valid users force user ="+MYDOMAIN+admin"
but i get an error on the windows machine saying that the specific account does not exist and i cannot access the share. The command only allows samba users defined in smbusers to be used?
The server is part of my domain and i was able to assign domain groups to the file permissions
I have a samba server and a raid SAN which is actually running samba. Neither one lets me access anything on the samba unix side. I really do not know where to look anymore. there are no errors. When I try to connect to the samba server I get prompted with login and password repeatedly.

TDBBACKUP(8) System Administration tools TDBBACKUP(8)NAME
tdbbackup - tool for backing up and for validating the integrity of samba .tdb files
SYNOPSIS
tdbbackup [-s suffix] [-v] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
This tool is part of the samba(1) suite.
tdbbackup is a tool that may be used to backup samba .tdb files. This tool may also be used to verify the integrity of the .tdb files prior
to samba startup or during normal operation. If it finds file damage and it finds a prior backup the backup file will be restored.
OPTIONS -h
Get help information.
-s suffix
The -s option allows the adminisistrator to specify a file backup extension. This way it is possible to keep a history of tdb backup
files by using a new suffix for each backup.
-v
The -v will check the database for damages (currupt data) which if detected causes the backup to be restored.
COMMANDS
GENERAL INFORMATION
The tdbbackup utility can safely be run at any time. It was designed so that it can be used at any time to validate the integrity of tdb
files, even during Samba operation. Typical usage for the command will be:
tdbbackup [-s suffix] *.tdb
Before restarting samba the following command may be run to validate .tdb files:
tdbbackup -v [-s suffix] *.tdb
Samba .tdb files are stored in various locations, be sure to run backup all .tdb file on the system. Important files includes:
o secrets.tdb - usual location is in the /usr/local/samba/private directory, or on some systems in /etc/samba.
o passdb.tdb - usual location is in the /usr/local/samba/private directory, or on some systems in /etc/samba.
o *.tdb located in the /usr/local/samba/var directory or on some systems in the /var/cache or /var/lib/samba directories.
VERSION
This man page is correct for version 3 of the Samba suite.
