Can some one clarify that statement a little more for the hard at
learning please? Do you mean the MAC is using the SAMBA symlink and
attempting to follow it to a location on its local disk?
"The Mac is almost certainly using the unix extensions to follow the
symlink on the client side. If you want the server to follow the symlink
instead, you have to turn off unix extension support (unix extensions =
no)."

We have a new server running Red Hat 5.2EL.
Windows machines can samba to the linux server with no problems, including
symbolic links to the www directory.
Our Mac OS 10.5.5 machines have a problem with symbolic links to the www
directory.
On the Mac computers, the symbolic links show up as an alias that cannot be
followed.
These same MAC computers can samba to the www directory via a symbolic link on
our Fedora Core 5 server.
