Like the
valid
users
and
invalid
users
options, this pair of options specifies which users have read-only access to a writeable share and read-write access to a read-only share, respectively. The value of either options is a list of users.
read
list
overrides any other Samba permissions granted - as well as Unix file permissions on the server system - to deny users write access.
write
list
overrides other Samba permissions to grant write access, but cannot grant write access if the user lacks write permissions for the file on the Unix system. You can specify NIS or Unix group names by prefixing the name with an at sign (such as
@users
). Neither configuration option has a default value associated with it.
