Ok i guess i found out. Samba would do only Directory Changes notification but not File Changes notification.Meaning it returns only the fact that "something" has changed in the folder and not "this file" has changed. i guess my transcoder software is expecting the latter ...

Can anyone confirm me this limitation in samba ?

Hi guys,

I am trying to make samba send a notification to our video transcoder software when a new file is created in a specific folder. So far no success @ all ... : running samba version 3.0.14a-r2 on linux kernel 2.613. All i can see is that the changes is detected by the kernel but for some reasons not passed by to the windows XP client where the video transcoder software is running .

here the logs :

smbd/notify_kernel.c:kernel_check_notify(99)

I ve tried many things : (permissions all set to 777 , forcing a port 139 or 445 and other more stupid i wouldn t tell ...) Running out of ideas , any help would be appreciated.


Cheers and thanx
