Hello I have a Debian Sarge Server <http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/#> running samba with two Disks. The first disk has the OS on it with all home directories etc. in other words (/).
The second disk has a partition called /work mounted on it used as a shared repository for Windows xp <http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/#> clients. The problem I have is when a file with a long filename (65 chrs) is copied from an xp machine to /work I get an xp error of "filename too long", but when I copy the same file to /home (which is on the other disk <http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/#>) it works fine. I have carried out a few tests i.e creating a directory within /home with the same file path length as the offending directory in /work to see if I can replicate the problem, and I can't. The two disks are providing different results. Has anybody experienced a similar problem? Maybe a special mount option needs to be specified within /etc/fstab. I can't seem to find any answers!!! Any help is appreciated Thanks -- Kind Regards Alex Howe -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
