-<title>Configuring Samba Share Access Controls</title>
-
-<para>
-This section deals with how to configure Samba per share access control restrictions.
-By default samba sets no restrictions on the share itself. Restrictions on the share itself
-can be set on MS Windows NT4/200x/XP shares. This can be a very effective way to limit who can
-connect to a share. In the absence of specific restrictions the default setting is to allow
-the global user <emphasis>Everyone</emphasis> Full Control (ie: Full control, Change and Read).
-</para>
-
-<para>
-At this time Samba does NOT provide a tool for configuring access control setting on the Share
-itself. Samba does have the capacity to store and act on access control settings, but  the only
-way to create those settings is to use either the NT4 Server Manager or the Windows 200x MMC for
-Computer Management.
-</para>
-
-<para>
-Samba stores the per share access control settings in a file called <filename>share_info.tdb</filename>.
-The location of this file on your system will depend on how samba was compiled. The default location
-for samba's tdb files is under <filename>/usr/local/samba/var</filename>. If the <filename>tdbdump</filename>
-utility has been compiled and installed on your system then you can examine the contents of this file
-by: <userinput>tdbdump share_info.tdb</userinput>.

-<title>Windows NT4 Workstation/Server</title>
-<para>
-The tool you need to use to manage share permissions on a Samba server is the NT Server Manager.
-Server Manager is shipped with Windows NT4 Server products but not with Windows NT4 Workstation.
-You can obtain the NT Server Manager for MS Windows NT4 Workstation from Microsoft - see details below.

-<step><para>
-Launch the NT4 Server Manager, click on the Samba server you want to administer, then from the menu
-select Computer, then click on the Shared Directories entry.
-</para></step>
-
-<step><para>
-	Now click on the share that you wish to manage, then click on the Properties tab, next click on
-	the Permissions tab. Now you can Add or change access control settings as you wish.

-<title>Windows 200x/XP</title>
-
-<para>
-On MS Windows NT4/200x/XP system access control lists on the share itself are set using native
-tools, usually from filemanager. For example, in Windows 200x: right click on the shared folder,
-then select 'Sharing', then click on 'Permissions'. The default Windows NT4/200x permission allows
-<emphasis>Everyone</emphasis> Full Control on the Share.
-</para>
-
-<para>
-MS Windows 200x and later all comes with a tool called the 'Computer Management' snap-in for the
-Microsoft Management Console (MMC). This tool is located by clicking on <filename>Control Panel ->
-Administrative Tools -> Computer Management</filename>.
-</para>
-
-<procedure>
-<title>Instructions</title>
-<step><para>
-	After launching the MMC with the Computer Management snap-in, click on the menu item 'Action',
-	select 'Connect to another computer'. If you are not logged onto a domain you will be prompted
-	to enter a domain login user identifier and a password. This will authenticate you to the domain.
-	If you where already logged in with administrative privilidge this step is not offered.
-</para></step>
-
-<step><para>
-If the Samba server is not shown in the Select Computer box, then type in the name of the target
-Samba server in the field 'Name:'. Now click on the [+] next to 'System Tools', then on the [+]
-next to 'Shared Folders' in the left panel.
-</para></step>
-
-<step><para>
-Now in the right panel, double-click on the share you wish to set access control permissions on.
-Then click on the tab 'Share Permissions'. It is now possible to add access control entities
-to the shared folder. Do NOT forget to set what type of access (full control, change, read) you
-wish to assign for each entry.
-</para></step>
-</procedure>
-
-<warning>
-<para>
-Be careful. If you take away all permissions from the Everyone user without removing this user
-then effectively no user will be able to access the share. This is a result of what is known as
-ACL precidence. ie: Everyone with NO ACCESS means that MaryK who is part of the group Everyone
-will have no access even if this user is given explicit full control access.
