Does setting preserve case=no solve your issues ? No, as “touch test.test ; touch TEST.test” still creates two separate files. Anyhow, “touch file.test ; ls FILE.test” (correctly) returns FILE.test? -- case sensitivity option (case sensitive=no) is not honored https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561281 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

–– more importantly, with “preserve case = no” it is seems to be impossible to create mixed-case file names; but only from Windows, LINUX does allow this…? -- case sensitivity option (case sensitive=no) is not honored https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561281 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 561281] Re: case sensitivity option (case sensitive=no) is not honored
My conclusion for now: Does setting preserve case=no solve your issues ? YES, BUT it creates a new critical issue. With this option, it is no longer possible to create files with the case that the file passes (see smb.conf). They are forced to be the default case (lower). -- case sensitivity option (case sensitive=no) is not honored https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561281 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

[Bug 561281] Re: case sensitivity option (case sensitive=no) is not honored
** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid ** Description changed: Binary package hint: samba In my setup using samba's “case sensitive = no” option it is not possible for Windows machines to create files with the same filename but different cases. Example: “file.test” can not reside next to “FILE.test”. However, when a LINUX client (Gentoo) connects to the SAMBA share, it is allowed to create such files, ignoring SAMBA's case sensitivity option. When the same LINUX client connects to a Windows share the behaviour is correct. $ lsb_release -rd Description:Ubuntu lucid (development branch) Release:10.04 $ apt-cache policy samba samba: - Installed: 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu2 - Candidate: 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 - Version table: - 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 0 - 500 http://dz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages - *** 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu2 0 - 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status - + Installed: 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu2 + Candidate: 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 + Version table: + 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 0 + 500 http://dz.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ lucid/main Packages + *** 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu2 0 + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status mount options (output of mount command): //samba-machine/share on mount point type cifs (rw,mand,relatime,unc=\\samba-machine\share,username=username,domain=domain,uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=ip address,file_mode=0755,dir_mode=0755,nocase,rsize=16384,wsize=57344) global section in smb.conf: [global] - log level = 2 - netbios name = netbios name - workgroup = workgroup - wins server = wins server - map to guest = Bad User - encrypt passwords = true - domain master = no - local master = yes - domain logons = yes - os level = 63 - passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://127.0.0.1/ - obey pam restrictions = no - security = user - ldap admin dn = ldap admin dn - ldap ssl = no - ldap delete dn= yes - ldap group suffix = ou=Groups - ldap machine suffix = ou=Computers - ldap user suffix = ou=Users - ldap suffix = ldap suffix - winbind nested groups = no - winbind trusted domains only = yes - case sensitive = no + log level = 2 + netbios name = netbios name + workgroup = workgroup + wins server = wins server + map to guest = Bad User + encrypt passwords = true + domain master = no + local master = yes + domain logons = yes + os level = 63 + passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://127.0.0.1/ + obey pam restrictions = no + security = user + ldap admin dn = ldap admin dn + ldap ssl = no + ldap delete dn= yes + ldap group suffix = ou=Groups + ldap machine suffix = ou=Computers + ldap user suffix = ou=Users + ldap suffix = ldap suffix + winbind nested groups = no + winbind trusted domains only = yes + case sensitive = no share section in smb.conf: [share name$] - path = path - browseable = no - writeable = yes - inherit acls = yes - inherit permissions = yes - create mask = 775 - directory mask = 775 - write list = write list - nt acl support = no - vfs objects = recycle - recycle: repository = __Trash - recycle: keeptree = Yes - recycle: exclude = *.tmp, *.temp, *.log, *.ldb - recycle: exclude_dir = tmp - recycle:versions = Yes + path = path + browseable = no + writeable = yes + inherit acls = yes + inherit permissions = yes + create mask = 775 + directory mask = 775 + write list = write list + nt acl support = no + vfs objects = recycle + recycle: repository = __Trash + recycle: keeptree = Yes + recycle: exclude = *.tmp, *.temp, *.log, *.ldb + recycle: exclude_dir = tmp + recycle:versions = Yes explanatory behaviour: # cd /mounts/samba-share # touch file.test # touch FILE.test # ls *.test FILE.text file.test # cd /mounts/windows-share # touch file.test # touch FILE.test # ls *.test file.test ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: samba 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-19.28-generic 2.6.32.10+drm33.1 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-19-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: vmnet vmci vmmon Architecture: amd64 Date: Mon Apr 12 09:35:02 2010 InstallationMedia: Error: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/log/installer/media-info' ProcEnviron: - LANG=en_US - SHELL=/bin/bash + LANG=en_US + SHELL=/bin/bash SambaServerRegression: No SourcePackage: samba -- case sensitivity option (case sensitive=no) is not honored https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561281 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

[Bug 561281] Re: case sensitivity option (case sensitive=no) is not honored
I think what you're looking for is the preserve case option (default to yes, which means new files are created with original case preserved). case sensitive is just use to match existing files (default to auto). See man smb.conf for details. Marking as invalid (not a bug), please reopen with more detail if you disagree. ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Status: New = Invalid -- case sensitivity option (case sensitive=no) is not honored https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561281 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 561281] Re: case sensitivity option (case sensitive=no) is not honored
I disagree. The problem is that when, for example, two files “test.test” and “test.TEST” are being addressed they should be treated as the exact same file, as case sensitivity should be off and SAMBA should not care about letter cases. They do when being addressed by a Windows (7) machine, in my setup, but they do not when they are being created by a LINUX client (mount options see above). When they are created by that LINUX machine, SAMBA allows “test.test” and “TEST.test” to be two different, independent files when it should not. I do not think that the client is the issue because when being connected to a Windows share the behaviour is as desired. ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid = New -- case sensitivity option (case sensitive=no) is not honored https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561281 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 561281] Re: case sensitivity option (case sensitive=no) is not honored
SMB shares work with a negotiation between the capabilities of the server and the capabilities of the client. By default, it tries to enable as many features as possible. By default (case sensitive=auto, preserve case=yes), when using Linux clients to connect to Linux servers, you'll get full case support. If you want to emulate the limited capabilities of a Windows server, you should at least set the following: case sensitive=no preserve case=no That should give you the intended (mis)behavior. How a file is represented on the filesystem differs from how a file is resolved on the filesystem. Recent windows all have case-sensitive file names, but it resolves case-insensitively. preserve case is about how Samba creates files in shares (representation) while case insensitive is about how Samba resolves them. case sensitive=no doesn't make all Samba magically case insensitive, as you seem to think it should do. There are a few other options that affect cases sensitivity, as you'll see by reading up man smb.conf (or http://oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/ch05_04.html) Does setting preserve case=no solve your issues ? ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- case sensitivity option (case sensitive=no) is not honored https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561281 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
