Hi Eric,
Thanks for your help. We actually figured out our problem. We had a variable set to
Read Only which was preventing us from getting to our data.
Thanks again for your help and prompt response!
April

April Hello, We are using Samba to connect our ClearCase server
April to the Windows environment. Our original configuration was
April one server hosting all our VOBs and Views. We have Samba
April configured to allow mapping of shares to our ClearCase
April Windows Clients. Everything was working fine. Now we have
April set up a second server to host all our Views separate from
April the VOBs. So we have a View server and a separate VOB
April separate. When we setup the View server we installed Samba
April on that server, copied the config file from the original
April setup to the new server and the only configuration change
April made was in the Global parameters, the NetBios Name to be
April the new server name.
April We are able to map a network drive to our new server. We
April are able to create a View on the UNIX server, region
April synchronize on the Win Client side and mount a VOB. However
April when we try to create a new file we get a window stating
April Access Denied. If we try to check out an existing file we
April get an Error checking out {filename}. Unable to update
April view {viewname}: Permission Denied. Unable to check out
April {filename}.
April We are able to complete all these steps within the UNIX
April environment, we are only having problems from the Windows
April environment and so we are assuming it has to do with our
April Samba configuration.
This is usually caused by a permission problem.
Did you copy username.map from the VOB server to the View server?
What are the exact details in the view_log on the client?
Is there anything in the error_log?
What is the ALBD Account? Is there a corresponding UNIX account?
Do you realize that performance of views through Samba will probably
be 50-200+% worse than a local view?
If you increase the Samba debug level to 3 and repeat the operation,
what is in the Samba log?
Do you have 'log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.%m' in your smb.conf?
This will make it easier to debug.
