Samba File Share accessed by other users
Hello,
I've setup file server with Samba. and it working. However, there's one issue that I need to solve.
Whenever, I access the share folder EVEN im not a user of that share folder, I can see the files as long as I know the folder name. How can I restrict the folder (read and write) only to users listed? Its now invisible when I add "browsable =no" but if user knows the exact share name, they can see the content, which I want to avoid.
For example, I browse my share folder
\\192.168.1.2\media
and I am using user3, I can access the folder of media, even user3 is not listed on write or read list
[media]
path = /FS/media
guest ok = no
security = user
browsable = no
write list = user1 user2
read list = user1 user2
public = no
available = yes
Hope you can help.
