Hi Lenard,
Thanks for the reply.But i need your help once more.Right now the samba option is working only for the parent directory not for the subdirectories.I'll explain in detail.
The logical volume /dev/icvol/logicvol is mounted to /ic.
Inside the /ic there are 3 subdirectories lets say a, b & c.
c - is a cvsrepository
a - we want everyone to check out the cvs contents to this folder
b - where everyone keeps their simulation files & other things.
for a & b => owner = root & group =root
c => owner = cvsuser group =cvsuser
if i share only /ic using samba, then from windows client side they can map to it( but they will be seeing the cvs repository data also..which we don't want)
if i share /ic/a & /ic/b separately using samba then i'm not able to map to that particular share.
Also please say whether the sharing which i've done(sharing a logical volume) is good or not for the data inside it.As i said earlier i'm confused after the reading the article that"sharing the logical volume is dangerous"..
