https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=252893 Bug ID: 252893 Summary: handbook: reference to outdated samba "security = shared" setting Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Many People Priority: --- Component: Documentation Assignee: doc@FreeBSD.org Reporter: cm@sdf.org Samba no longer has a "security = shared" setting, including on the version used by FreeBSD 11. >From https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/network-samba.html: "The most common settings are security = share and security = user... In share level security, clients do not need to log onto the server with a valid username and password before attempting to connect to a shared resource. This was the default security model for older versions of Samba." Ideally this would be replaced by some instructions for creating a public share without "security = share", maybe with "map to guest = Bad User" (I'm not clear on the details so did not attempt a patch myself). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.home | help
