Hi.
Yes, this is still reproducible with buster's 2:4.9.4+dfsg-2


I can't reproduce this anymore on 4.16. Is it still an issue?
If yes, I need some more accurate instructions to reproduce...

Thanks,

Bug#692551: Symlinks in share root are not shown to client if share has sticky bit

[Vladimir K]

Package: samba
Version: 2:3.6.6-3
Severity: normal

Dear maintainer,
I have samba server configured to follow symlinks.
Some of the lines of my smb.conf:
 [global]
 unix extensions = no
 [public]
 path = /home/public
 wide links = yes
 follow symlinks = yes

Generally it works as it should, but If share path has a sticky bit set, client 
does not see symlinks placed in the root of this share.
Symlinks placed in subdirs of the share are correctly shown regardless of 
sticky bit:
/home/public/symlink1 < not shown on client if /home/public has sticky bit
/home/public/subdir/symlink2 < always shown on client
The moment I do 'chmod -t /home/public', symlinks in share root appear on 
client.
