I'm running Samba 2.3x on a RH 8 box and sharing out my wife's and my
home directories so that we can access them from our Windows computers.
I use the "Map Network Drive" tool under Windows to connect my share on
the Linux box to my Windows computer as Drive Z:, so I can save files
there and edit them on either my Windows computer or my Linux desktop
computer.
Unfortunately, when I save files onto the share, they show up as being
created and owned by username "nobody". The consequence of that is that
files I create with Windows cannot be edited with Linux.
Is there a way to set it up so that files I create in Windows show up as
owned by my regular Linux user account? I have tried selecting "connect
as different user" when mapping the remote drive in Windows, but that
doesn't help.
You can setup Samba access to USER instead of SHARE and you need to add
users to linux box eg. you and your wife. Then each of you will have
it's own folder on linux box with its own permissions.
