I am running a simple Samba server on my home NAS (on 13.1-RELEASE-p6) for sharing a small number of files among the few Windows clients in my network. Everything seems to work correctly, the clients can access the network share and read/write files as needed, but every time there are clients accessing the files on the server, the following error starts frequently popping up in
Theoretically this should be easy to resolve, just need to set the correct permissions, but I don't understand how the permissions are wrong. According to
What are the correct permissions that I am supposed to have on
/var/log/messages:rpcd_classic[77821]: reopen_one_log: Unable to open new log file '/var/log/samba4/log.rpcd_classic': Permission deniedTheoretically this should be easy to resolve, just need to set the correct permissions, but I don't understand how the permissions are wrong. According to
ps aux, all of the smbd processes and rpcbind are running as root. The directory /var/log/samba4 and everything within is owned by root with read and write permissions, and the filesystem has plenty of free disk space. The /var/log/samba4/log.rpcd_classic file that is already there is owned by root and is still having new entries added to the log file. I don't see any users relating to samba/rpcbind in /etc/passwd (other than the sambaUser I created for clients accessing the file share).What are the correct permissions that I am supposed to have on
/var/log/samba4? Or is this a samba configuration issue?cat /usr/local/etc/smb4.conf:
