Package: samba Version: 2:3.5.6~dfsg-3 Severity: important
This used to work with the server using lenny's samba, now it does this: root@client:/# mount //server/shared /mnt -t cifs Password: root@client:/# cd /mnt/etc root@client:/mnt/etc# ls -l ls: cannot access localtime: Permission denied ... l????????? ? ? ? ? ? localtime ... The original localtime file looks like this on the real filesystem: # ls -l localtime lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 ene 16 2008 localtime -> /usr/share/zoneinfo/UTC This happens with all absolute path symlinks, it looks like the new wide links option is cutting this but as I'd like Unix extensions enabled I cannot have wide links enabled at the same time, so even though I define my share with this config (having unix extensions = yes in the global config) [shared] browseable = no writable = no public = yes follow symlinks = yes wide links = yes path = /shareddir/ I cannot get the absolute links to work, as I'm only sharing /shareddir where I have a full linux tree. This is how the mounted dir looks on the client (both client and server are squeeze based): //server/shareddir/ /mnt cifs rw,mand,relatime,unc=\\server\shareddir,username=root,uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=212.51.63.13,posixpaths,serverino,acl,rsize=16384,wsize=57344 0 0 I cannot see why should wide links be disabled with unix extensions on, I mean... with unix extensions on the client is the one that has to follow the symlinks, not the server, or am I missing something here? I have read smb.conf manual page and I cannot see a way to return to the old behaviour. If you need any other tests or info just tell me, please. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=gl_ES@euro, LC_CTYPE=gl_ES@euro (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages samba depends on: ii adduser 3.112+nmu2 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.36.1 Debian configuration management sy ii libacl1 2.2.49-4 Access control list shared library ii libattr1 1:2.4.44-2 Extended attribute shared library ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcap2 1:2.19-3 support for getting/setting POSIX. ii libcomerr2 1.41.12-2 common error description library ii libcups2 1.4.4-7 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.8.3+dfsg-4 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries - k ii libk5crypto3 1.8.3+dfsg-4 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries - C ii libkrb5-3 1.8.3+dfsg-4 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.23-7 OpenLDAP libraries ii libpam-modules 1.1.1-6.1 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime 1.1.1-6.1 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 1.1.1-6.1 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpopt0 1.16-1 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libtalloc2 2.0.1-1 hierarchical pool based memory all ii libwbclient0 2:3.5.6~dfsg-3 Samba winbind client library ii lsb-base 3.2-23.2squeeze1 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii procps 1:3.2.8-9 /proc file system utilities ii samba-common 2:3.5.6~dfsg-3 common files used by both the Samb ii update-inetd 4.38+nmu1 inetd configuration file updater ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages samba recommends: ii logrotate 3.7.8-6 Log rotation utility Versions of packages samba suggests: pn ctdb <none> (no description available) pn ldb-tools <none> (no description available) ii openbsd-inetd [inet-superse 0.20080125-6 The OpenBSD Internet Superserver pn smbldap-tools <none> (no description available) -- debconf information: samba/run_mode: daemons samba/generate_smbpasswd: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
