Description Andre Albsmeier 1999-09-08 07:30:01 UTC 
The samba ports creates a directory /usr/local/private for some
secret files.I personally think this is quite ugly and we might
choose to change this to /usr/local/etc/samba. (Patch 1).

The directory is mode 700 because the secret smbpasswd file with
the encrypted passwords lies there. The smbpasswd file itself is
mode 600 which does the same kind of protection. So another approach
would be to remove the private directory completely and put the affected
stuff into /usr/local/etc as well. That's what I use here. (Patch 2)

Fix: Patch 1:

Patch 2:
How-To-Repeat: 
ls -l /usr/local		:-)
