Hi,

I'm running Samba as a glorified NAS at the moment - to begin with, I have an ext3 storage partition, /storage. In this is a directory, /storage/Personal, which has its own Samba share (also Personal). At this point, dos attributes using filesystem xattrs work beautifully. The problem comes when I start to fiddle further... I have a Novell NetWare filesystem (ncpmount) mounted at /home/jarrad/novellmount - accessed from the system running the samba server, this works fine; however, the ncpmount filesystem does not support extended attributes. /home/jarrad/novellmount has a subdirectory /home/jarrad/novellmount/directory1. Now the fun: as soon as I make a symbolic link /storage/Personal/novelldirectory1 to point to /home/jarrad/novellmount/directory1, Samba stops emulating DOS attributes on my Personal share (at least as far as my Windows 7 client is concerned).
Is there any way around this?

Thanks,
Jarrad Whitaker
