I'm new here, and after some researching I found that I 'think' I need help. I hope I am doing correctly and maybe my english is not perfect, but I try. So let's get started.
I have computer with Ubuntu Server 18.04.6 installed (x64). More specs:
-Samba server installed (package samba) and configured.
-ZFS storage installed and configured - mounted in /free.
-SSH password auth disabled - authentication via private key with user borhacker.
-I have my main shares directory under the zfs pool, in /free/fr/... . For example, /free/fr/data - /free/fr/video - /free/fr/music - etc.
-Regarding to the samba users, I have 6 - borhacker - papa - mama - alex - raspberry - family - and all of them have their samba password adjusted via sudo smbpasswd -a alex
(for example)
Now, from yesterday, I figured out that I can only browse and use the shares from the user borhacker.
I'm trying to access [Fr-data] share from alex user (from Windows 7 system), but it says You can't access V:\ access denied.
I have also correctly set up user and permissions for a special share for him called [Fr-vidalex] in /free/fr/vidalex - it doesn't work . Then I tried to search several times in google but I didn't find a solution. Now I figured out maybe his home directory doesn't give me problems, so I set [Fr-vidalex] to path = /home/alex - and now it works. but only this share.
I can give the output from command pdbedit -L -v
that I found in another web site; my /etc/samba/smb.conf contents; the contents of /etc/group; the ownership and permissions of [Fr-data] directory and [Fr-vidalex] old directory, and /home/alex too. Initially I tried to put them all in the question, but the system of AskUbuntu doesn't let me publish - it marks my message as spam - maybe too much information. Now I will post smb.conf and I anyone willing to help asks me for more information, I will post. The first sections are unchanged so I didn't post. I only edited the shares, and I'm posting them.
