Hello, I have to debian lenny servers serving SAMBA shared folders to XP SP3 clients. One server is running samba 3.2.3, the other 3.0.24.
On one of the shares there is a folder which contains email message files with names like: 1164373321.H21047P2656.mail.domain.com:1Gnagg-0000gi-0p On the 3.2.3 samba server: >From XP I can browse the folder containing that file, but if I try to copy the file itself I get "Cannot read from source disk" windows error. I can however copy the folder that contains the file. On the 3.0.24 samba server: >From XP I can browse the folder and copy the file itself as well as the folder containing the file. I've done some additional tests, if I remove the colon ":" from the file name, the problem disappears. Could you please advise what would be the reason for 3.2.3 not allowing XP clients to copy files containing colons and 3.0.24 would? I'm using the default smb.conf with one additional section: [MailBackup] comment = MailBackup writable = no locking = no path = /wwmail public = no guest ok = no valid users = mailusers Thank you.
