Hi, most of the time when I create a file the cifs mounted Samba shares, the CREATE inotify event is missing. The annoying consequence of this is that file managers like nautilus do refresh automatically and a manual refresh is necessary to see new files.
I have mounted two samba shares with cifs in my /etc/fstab: //kjpsx/home /home/KHD cifs sec=krb5,multiuser,noforceuid,noforcegid //kjpsx/dat2 /dat cifs sec=krb5,multiuser,noforceuid,noforcegid For example, creating two files on these shares with the commands touch ~/tmp/test touch /dat/admin/test create the inotify events (output of "inotifywait -m ~/tmp /dat/admin/") tmp/ CREATE test tmp/ OPEN test tmp/ ATTRIB test tmp/ CLOSE_WRITE,CLOSE test /dat/admin/ OPEN test /dat/admin/ ATTRIB test /dat/admin/ CLOSE_WRITE,CLOSE test Both files were created on cifs file systems, but the second "touch" did not result in a CREATE event. Has anybody an idea whats going on here? I use cifs version 1.78, kernel 3.5.0-32 x86_64, Ubuntu 12.04 Peter-- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-cifs" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
