@nashbrydges said in Linux As File Server- Break Out From Other Thread:
I've been running a Linux file server in my own lab for a while now and permissions are pretty simple to manage for just a few users but when we get to the range of 10-20 employees, any hints on how to more effectively manage these file servers?
You can still use groups to assign permissions.
Let's say you created groups called marketing and sales. In your smb.conf file, you would do something like this.
[Marketing]
path = /data/marketing
guest ok = no
guest only = no
write list = @marketing
read list = @sales
valid users = @markeiting, @sales
