Been testing PDC this morning at it works well. I really like it. Not so sure if everyone else is going to like it but oh well lol. I have a couple of questions.

As you can see in the image, my personal share is only 6.49 GB, is there a way to change the location were the share is located, in my case i would want it /var/hda/files/?????? that is were my 1 TB is located. Other question is what is the best way when roaming between windows and linux pc's and on a linux pc to get to the personal drive, has to be something easy or i am always to going to have to show the kids. lol

also, how or would I be able to enable quota for users so they don't fill the drive up doing something stupid lol, I am sure this is a feature a SOHO would want.

make a share there? the logon.bat under /var/hda/domain-settings takes care of what things are mounted.

you can change your home directory in linux with usermod -d (and you probably want -m too). then it will not be in /home/<user>

i am not sure, but i think they all mount automatically you can mount more by changing the logon.bat

(no expert here, though )

I was testing PDC most of last night and was able to create a weird error, for all the kids I gave them only view permissions to all shares when I did I got the error below. Having all permissions on read/write will not create this error.
The funny thing about this is that besides the personal drive, pictures was the only other share folder available.
I am going through one by one and seeing what set this error, so far I have music and pictures as view without the error.
I also tried adding the current and root user name and password but neither of those worked.
Well be testing more tonight.

you can turn debug on in samba.

since the debug logs are so voluminous, i wonder if there is some log parsing script in the samba community. the idea would be that we would run this hypothetical script through the, say, 5 most recently modified logs, and put the (hopefully more human readable) output somewhere where the user can see.

alternatively, perhaps a lower level than log level 5 produces still something that can trace errors of access?

duh, I have the log turned on, forgot all about it, is it in /var/log?

I have errors in several logs, I will get the logs together with pieces of the error in it and post it to pastbin tonight
