--- Begin Message ---Package: samba Version: 2:4.0.11+dfsg-1 Samba clients used to be able to copy files into write-only directories, but at some point in the last year this stopped working. To reproduce, create a write-only directory on the Samba server: mkdir -m 733 writeonly Then mount it from a client and try to write into it: echo x > /in/writeonly/test /bin/sh: cannot create /in/writeonly/test: Permission denied I have no trouble creating a file locally: su -s /bin/sh -c 'echo x > ~mgold/shared/inbox/writeonly/local' smbd The strace output on the server shows that smbd is trying to open the write-only directory: stat("writeonly/test", 0x7fff53c91a40) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) stat("writeonly", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|S_ISGID|0733, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 stat("writeonly/test", 0x7fff53c91a40) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) openat(AT_FDCWD, "writeonly", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) I'm guessing it wants the FD so it can pass that to another openat call with the filename. If so, the directory should be opened with O_SEARCH (POSIX) or O_PATH (Linux) so read permission is not required. - Michael -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.12-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages samba depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii dpkg 1.17.5 ii libbsd0 0.6.0-1 ii libc6 2.17-97 ii libldb1 1:1.1.16-1 ii libpam-modules 1.1.3-9 ii libpam-runtime 1.1.3-9 ii libpopt0 1.16-8 ii libroken18-heimdal 1.6~git20131117+dfsg-3 ii libtalloc2 2.1.0-1 ii libtdb1 1.2.12-1 ii libtevent0 0.9.19-1 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian12 ii procps 1:3.3.4-2 ii python 2.7.5-5 ii python-dnspython 1.11.1-1 ii python-samba 2:4.0.11+dfsg-1 pn python2.7:any <none> ii samba-common 2:4.0.11+dfsg-1 ii samba-common-bin 2:4.0.11+dfsg-1 ii samba-dsdb-modules 2:4.0.11+dfsg-1 ii samba-libs 2:4.0.11+dfsg-1 ii tdb-tools 1.2.12-1 ii update-inetd 4.43 Versions of packages samba recommends: ii attr 1:2.4.47-1 ii logrotate 3.8.6-1 Versions of packages samba suggests: pn bind9 <none> pn bind9utils <none> pn ctdb <none> pn ldb-tools <none> ii ntp 1:4.2.6.p5+dfsg-3 pn smbldap-tools <none> pn winbind <none> -- debconf information: samba-common/title: samba/run_mode: daemons samba/generate_smbpasswd: true
