Can the private folder be moved so that it is a sibling of the current parent? Then you could create a new share for the moved folder. So instead of this:<br />
<br />
Folder1<br />
.....Folder2<br />
<br />
...you would have this:<br />
<br />
Folder1<br />
Folder2
</div>

I could do it as a ton of shares. I was hoping to avoid this and have one share that they can all scan too, but private folders within that, that limit who can get to those docs. Is this not possible. <br />
<br />
I do know how to make lots of shares, but I know this could result in 20 or more and I'd prefer to not do it that way.

Is there any way other than acl?<br />

I don't understand why it won't work by just setting the owner/group permissions and world to 0, but it does not. Can Samba not allow this?

Given a Samba share that anyone can scan to, how can I setup private folders within that share folder that only the given user and someone in his group can scan to, i.e. rw over the network?

The variety of Linux distributions creates myriad issues relating to configuration and operations when computers are networked, not the least of which is the use of various network management applications, some of which are included with specific distributions, while others are standalone applications.

Linux Networking

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.
