smeserver-shared-folders

The latest version of smeserver-shared-folders is available in the SME repository, click on the version number(s) for more information.

Description

smeserver-shared-folders is a new module for SME. It looks more or less like ibays (I took a lot of code from the ibay module), but with more flexibility on file permissions as it supports ACL. There're also some additionnal options in the panel.

Requirements

• SME Server 7.X

Installation

• install the rpms

yum --enablerepo=smecontribs install smeserver-shared-folders

• Mount your filesystem(s) with the ACL option

If you use a standard SME server installation:

signal-event post-upgrade && signal-event reboot

should do the trick. If you don't like to reboot your server every time you install something (just like me :)), you can just run:

expand-template /etc/fstab

Check your filesystem mounted in /home/e-smith/files/ has the acl option, for example:

# This file is edited by fstab-sync - see 'man fstab-sync' for details
LABEL=/                 /                       ext3    usrquota,grpquota,acl        1 1
LABEL=/boot             /boot                   ext3    defaults        1 2
none                    /dev/pts                devpts  gid=5,mode=620  0 0
none                    /dev/shm                tmpfs   defaults        0 0
none                    /proc                   proc    defaults        0 0
none                    /sys                    sysfs   defaults        0 0
LABEL=SWAP-rd/c0d0p3    swap                    swap    defaults        0 0

You may have to manually add the acl option in /etc/fstab if you have mounted another filesystem here. Once the option is in fstab, you can just remount the partitions:

mount -o remount /
mount -o remount /home/e-smith/files

Check everything is ok:

[root@sme ~]# mount
/dev/sda2 on / type ext3 (rw,usrquota,grpquota,acl)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
none on /sys type sysfs (rw)
none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
usbfs on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)
/dev/rd/c0d0p1 on /boot type ext3 (rw)
none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw)
