automatically on the selected server. No shares can be created in and below /proc, /tmp, /root,
/dev and /sys.
Directory owner
The user who is to own the share. All the users registered for the domain in the LDAP directory
are available for selection. If more than 1000 users are found (this value can be configured with
the Univention Configuration Registry variable directory/manager/web/sizelimit), or if the
search for users within the LDAP directory takes longer than ten seconds, an entry field will be
displayed instead of the select list, in which the username is to be entered.
Directory owner group
The group which is to own the share. All the groups registered for the domain in the LDAP directory
are available for selection. If more than 1000 groups are found (this value can be configured with
the Univention Configuration Registry variable directory/manager/web/sizelimit), or if the
search for groups within the LDAP directory takes longer than ten seconds, an entry field will be
displayed instead of the select list, in which the group name is to be entered.
Directory mode
Read, write, and access permissions for the share.
Attention:
Univention Directory Manager stores the set values for users, groups, and access rights in the LDAP
directory, and makes sure that the directory exists and shared appropriately. Should the directory al-
ready exist, then the values defined in the file system will be overwritten by the values taken from the
LDAP directory. Changes in the shared directory, which were carried out directly in the file system,
are not passed on to the LDAP directory, and can therefore not be displayed by Univention Directory
Manager. If the shared object is edited within the LDAP directory, then the changes in the file sys-
tem will be overwritten. Therefore, settings should be made and changed with Univention Directory
Manager exclusively.
’Samba general’ tab
Samba name
The name of the share to be used by Samba (NetBIOS name). This is the name by which the
directory is represented, for example, on Windows clients within the network environment. When
adding a directory share, Univention Directory Manager automatically adopts the name entered in
the Name (*) field of the General tab as the Samba name.
Attention:
The homes share plays a special role within Samba. This share is used for sharing the home directo-
ries of the users. This share is automatically converted to the user’s home directory. Samba therefore
ignores the rights assigned in the share, and uses the rights of the respective home directory instead.
