Workgroup Manager Configuration files

[Anonymous]

I have recently added my XSERVE that is the NAS head to an apple xsan, then I moved the data from his local raid to the xsan volume, and changed my /etc/smb.conf file to reflect the new path, and all is well.

Until… I open Workgroup manager. It thinks everything is at the old path, and thinks all my shares are wrong. How can I edit the workgroup manager stuff to see the changes to the /etc/smb.conf?? why doesn’t it load the config from that first, instead of having some rogue file somewhere on the drive that I can’t find?

Thanks,

Thanks,

The sharing command looks to be able to add and remove shares without having to use workgroup manager, but the one thing it doesn’t let you do, is the one that I need in this case. There isn’t an easy way to change the directory path for the particular share.

I suppose I will need to delete and recreate each with the sharing command based on the previous entrys. Just a little longer than I’d like, but then again, aren’t most things?

thanks,
