Help,
I have Samba 2.25 on Suse 8.1. It has been rock solid for along time until today.
I went to add a Unix user (I'm using WebMN 1.030 and am letting it sync Unix and smb users) and everything was great until I logged in and saw every other user in this new users home directory. All the other shares work great.
When I go through Network Places (W2K) and I go into the server I see all the shares and only one share that has the current user name. All good so far. Now when I click on the share titled UserName I am blessed with all the UserName shares basically /home contents and not /home/UserName/. How is this possible. In the etc/passwd file all the home directories are listed as /home/UserName/. They are all actually like that in the file system /home/UserName/. Samba is all screwed up somehow and I would like to now how I can fix my apparent mistake.
Can someone please tell me if I have a wrong setting in my smb.conf file (which hasn't changed since I added all my other users months ago)...
<SNIP>
[homes]
create mask = 0640
browseable = no
directory mask = 0750
comment = Home Directories
writable = yes
path = /home
</SNIP>
Thanks,
