It is reported in /usr/ports/UPDATING [0] that samba shares on other filesystems than ufs on freeBSD are not really supported: | 20070919: | AFFECTS: users of net/samba3 | AUTHOR: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | This is a cumulative update of net/samba3 from version 3.0.25a to | 3.0.26a. Detailed list of all the changes can be found: | | http://www.samba.org/samba/history/samba-3.0.26a.html | | or in the WHATSNEW.txt file in the port's document directory. | | Short summary is: | o Memory leaks in Winbind's IDMap manager. | o CVE-2007-4138 - Incorrect primary group assignment for domain | users using the RFC 2307 or sfu winbind nss info plugin. | o File sharing with Widows 9x clients. | o Winbind running out of file descriptors due to stalled child | processes. | o MS-DFS inter-operability issues. | o Offline caching of files with Windows XP/Vista clients. | o Improper cleanup of expired or invalid byte range locks on files. | o Crashes is idmap_ldap and idmap_rid. | | Bug #4715 (https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4715) is NOT | fixed yet, although it won't core dump smbd process any more. Still, | access to the shares other than UFS is not guaranteed. | | * USE SUCH SHARES AT YOUR OWN RISK * ciao Thomas [0] In your filesystem, or in the web (for non-freeBSD-Users ;) ): http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/UPDATING?rev=1.568;content-type=text%2Fplain -- Thomas Flaig mailto: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
