How to Modify CIFS Group Properties

1. Become superuser, assume an equivalent role, obtain the solaris.smf.value.smb and solaris.smf.manage.smb RBAC authorizations, or use the “SMB Management” RBAC profile, which is part of the “File System Management” profile.

   Roles contain authorizations and privileged commands. For more information about roles, see Configuring RBAC (Task Map) in System Administration Guide: Security Services. To configure a role with the Primary Administrator profile, see Chapter 2, Working With the Solaris Management Console (Tasks), in System Administration Guide: Basic Administration.

2. Modify one or more CIFS group properties.

   # smbadm set -p property=value [[-p property=value] …] group-name

   You can specify one or more property-value pairs on the command line. Each property-value pair must be preceded by the -p option. Valid values for privileges are on or off. The value of the description property is an arbitrary text string.

   For example, to grant the backup privilege and to modify the description of the wsales group, type:

   # smbadm set -p backup=on \ -p description="Sales force for the Western region" wsales
