Quoting Oleg Goldshmidt <[email protected]>:
FWIW, I see similar effects when the server is Windows. I have a
different setup, I run VMware VMs on my work laptop, and I mount a
share on the host (WinXP 64 bit) in Linux VM (CentOS 5.3). After
initial hiccups I worked my way through the various "security" tabs in
the share's "Properties" window, and disabled the host's firewall
(after a nod from the company's sysadmin). After that what I need to
do works just fine, but when I read your posting I tried to touch a
couple of files and copy one over the other (had not had a need to do
it before) - and I saw effects similar to what you describe ("can't
modify owner", "can't modify time", etc.).
Interesting, because my mount to the office file server (windows)
actually works well, no problems copying or touching or anything.
Could be a different version of windows.
I suspect the culprit maybe CIFS ACLs (I had added the user who mounts
the share to the list and had given him "full access") and/or their
mapping to POSIX ACLs. I played a bit with getfacl/setfacl but got
nowhere. Maybe some googling for CIFS ACLs will help.
I'll try that, thanks.
