Package: samba Version: 2:3.2.3-1 Severity: important
Hello, I have two debian lenny servers serving SAMBA shared folders to XP SP3 clients. One server is running samba 3.2.3, the other 3.0.24. On one of the shares there is a folder which contains email message files with names like: 1164373321.H21047P2656.mail.domain.com:1Gnagg-0000gi-0p On the 3.2.3 samba server: >From XP I can browse the folder containing that file, but if I try to copy the file itself I get "Cannot read from source disk" windows error. I can however copy the folder that contains the file. On the 3.0.24 samba server: >From XP I can browse the folder and copy the file itself as well as the folder containing the file. I've done some additional tests, if I remove the colon ":" from the file name, the problem disappears. Could you please advise what would be the reason for 3.2.3 not allowing XP clients to copy files containing colons and 3.0.24 would? I'm using the default smb.conf with one additional section: [MailBackup] comment = MailBackup writable = no locking = no path = /wwmail public = no guest ok = no valid users = mailusers -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages samba depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0 1.5.22 Debian configuration management sy ii libacl1 2.2.47-2 Access control list shared library ii libattr1 1:2.4.43-1 Extended attribute shared library ii libc6 2.7-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcap1 1:1.10-14 support for getting/setting POSIX. ii libcomerr2 1.41.0-3 common error description library ii libcups2 1.3.8-1 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libgnutls26 2.4.1-1 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libkrb53 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-4 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.10-3 OpenLDAP libraries ii libpam-modules 1.0.1-4+b1 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime 1.0.1-4 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 1.0.1-4+b1 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpopt0 1.14-4 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libtalloc1 1.2.0~git20080616-1 hierarchical pool based memory all ii libwbclient0 2:3.2.3-1 client library for interfacing wit ii logrotate 3.7.1-3 Log rotation utility ii lsb-base 3.2-19 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii procps 1:3.2.7-8 /proc file system utilities ii samba-common 2:3.2.3-1 Samba common files used by both th ii update-inetd 4.30+nmu1 inetd configuration file updater ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12 compression library - runtime samba recommends no packages.
