There are two things you can do,

1. for homes share, add "path = /path/to/home/%S" 2. for homes share, change mask from 0775 to 0700

This may help but may not the way you are looking for.

I have a CentOS6.3 SAMBA file server. All the users are on a Windows Server 2008 Active Directory Domain Controller and authentication is done using Winbind integration on SAMBA .

Everything works well except that if someone logs on to the Samba Server, they see all the shared folders there and also a folder with their own name %USER%. This Folder is not accessible, one cannot enter into this folder, I have noticed that it's not being automatically created in the home folder :

i.e /home/%USER%/ is not there.

My smb.conf is as follows

    workgroup = Domain0

    security = ads

    realm = Domain.com



    encrypt passwords = yes

    preferred master = no



    template shell = /bin/bash

    template homedir = /home/%D/%U

    winbind separator = $

   ; template primary group = "Domain Users"

    winbind uid = 600-20000

    winbind gid = 600-20000

    winbind use default domain = yes

    winbind nested groups = yes

    winbind enum users = yes

    winbind enum groups = yes

    enhanced browsing = yes

    winbind offline logon = false

   password server = dc.domain.com



   [homes]



    create mask = 0775

    directory mask = 0775

    browseable = no

    comment = Home Directories

    valid users = %U

    writable = yes

anyone who can help me on this?

Bonnie
