[04:09] <laxa8831> hi :)
[04:11] <nisshh> laxa8831, hey there
[04:12] <laxa8831> ive got a q about folder permissions with samba
[04:12] <laxa8831> ive set up a few drives with r/w access and they work well
[04:12] <nisshh> yeah
[04:12] <laxa8831> but i have one folder inside that drive that i want read-only access to, except for root and 1 network user
[04:12] <laxa8831> inside a drive i mean
[04:13] <nisshh> right, so you want a specific folder in one of the samba shares to have specific permissions?
[04:13] <laxa8831> so in effect, network users have full control over the drive's contents except for one folder, which is protected
[04:13] <laxa8831> yeah
[04:13] <nisshh> i see
[04:15] <nisshh> laxa8831, im not familiar with samba sorry, plus i have to go to college right about now, i have notified people in our chat channel that you need some help, if you just wait for someone that would be great
[04:15] <laxa8831> thanks alot man
[04:15] <laxa8831> very much appreciated!
[04:15] <nisshh> no problem :)
[04:15] <laxa8831> have fun learning
[04:16] <nisshh> laxa8831, i might see you around later, bye :)
[04:16] <Blank__> laxa8831, i've done a little bit of fiddling with samba permissions, however i'm far too sick to help you right now... sorry
[04:17] <laxa8831> thats no good ;(
[04:18] <laxa8831> hope you get better
[04:18] <Blank__> thanks
[04:18] <laxa8831> ill be able to test out my modified smb.conf when a computer frees up
[04:20] <laxa8831> ok lol, tested it then
[04:20] <laxa8831> i created another share to that folder
[04:20] <laxa8831> and of course it works when accessing the folder directly
[04:20] <laxa8831> but when when accessing the folder from within another share
[04:20] <laxa8831> :(
[04:58] <laxa8831> this is hard lol
[04:58] <laxa8831> chown and chmod dont seem to do anything
[04:58] <laxa8831> i cant change a folders owner or the folders permissions
[05:47] <laxa8831> okey dokey
[05:47] <laxa8831> i worked it out
[05:47] <laxa8831> the command: veto files = 'folder' 
[05:48] <laxa8831> will hide folders from a share
[05:48] <laxa8831> and i created a sperate share with the sensitive files

[11:46] <vk3xci-eee> New  install Ubuntu 10.10...but kept the old /home now  firefox won't connect to https sites! Had the same prob once before and someone here gave me the answer. I have apt-get --purged and reinstalled to no avail. Anyone got a clue?
[11:49] <nisshh> vk3xci-eee, try rm -r ~/.mozilla :)
[11:49] <nisshh> then restart firefox and try again
[11:53] <vk3xci-eee> removes the . mozilla directory and rebuilds on start up.... still no joy. (tried once before but did it again anyway)
[11:57] <dns53> try mozilla -profilemanager
[11:57] <dns53> create a new profile and start again
[12:01] <head_victim> vk3xci-eee: I remember something about ipv6 stuff at one stage?
[12:02] <vk3xci-eee> Okaaaay.... defaults to ipv6 or some such... 
[12:02] <head_victim> vk3xci-eee: unless you're using ipv6 have a look at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1136912
[12:02] <head_victim> Post 3 has the answer I believe.
[12:02] <vk3xci-eee> i ll go look
