The problem: I have a share with symlinks leading outside the share.
After mounting the shared resource (cifs), I can't proceed through
symlinks (permission denied).

Setting options

follow symlinks = yes
wide links = yes

for the share doesn't change Samba behaviour. Could someone enlighten me
on how to handle this?

Do not use symlinks, rather use bind mounts.

The idea is to make the navigation through symlinks uniform, both in ssh shell and via Samba share, without breaking anything that works on the shared directories and relies on symlinks existence..

Correct me if I am wrong, you propose changing all the symlinks to 'mount -o bind' mounts?

Is there documented way to traverse symlinks on share?

Thanks.
