Thread: Need help setting Samba up as a file server


greetings,

have been trying figure out how set samba file server. installed 9.10 64bit server w/ samba. added 5 500gb drives, each 2 partitions, , added them fstab , have them auto mounting /mnt/xxxxx location.

need following:
restrict computers can log samba server (iptablers?) ip addy, computer name, , or mac address (all 3 great).

need create shares each of 10 mount points have created. want create account have rwx privlidges, others r-x.

can specify windows users have access each specific folder? need acl's? there way give 1 user global access of folders within samba?

set encryption few of mount points if possible. option samba?

can help!

restrict computers can log samba server (iptablers?) ip addy, computer name, , or mac address (all 3 great).
