Samba Version: 3.4.7
OS: Ubuntu Lucid 10.04

Setup: This samba box is a member of a win2k active directory domain and
functions as a file server. Files/directories shared out utilize file system
acls.

smb.conf portion for share in question:

[Accounting]
    comment = Accounting Share
    path = /netdrives/accounting
    browsable = yes
    read only = no
    map archive = no
    map system = yes
    map hidden = yes
    inherit acls = no
    inherit permissions = no
    acl check permissions = True
    create mask = 0771
    directory mask = 2771
    invalid users = @"FOO.EDU+College-Student"
    valid users = @"FOO.EDU+accounting"

Attachment: Text export of packet summary from tcpdump covering the problem
occurrence.

Problem:

All sorts of file reads/writes/etc. to any part of this share work fine for
any user with a singular exception. This exception occurs when a very
antiquated piece of DOS based software attempts to write a zip backup file
to the share. The attached tcpdump packet summary shows the error at around
number 1069. It appears that samba responds to a request for information
about the backup file with STATUS_NO_SUCH_FILE, which is, in fact, not true
based on a directory listing via a shell prompt on the samba box. A check of
perms on the file in question shows that they are correct for the operation
being attempted. Ie.

# file: MPLUSWIN.ZIP
# owner: accounting_member
# group: accounting
user::rw-
group::rw-
group:accounting:rw-
mask::rw-
other::---

The puzzling aspect is that each time the file is indeed created, but never
written to.

-rw-rw----+ 1 accounting_member accounting    0 2011-02-21 14:49
MPLUSWIN.ZIP

Note: All other file operations performed by this piece of software on files
stored on this share work absolutely fine.

Any help will be appreciated.

Kind Regards,
Chris
