[Samba] Delayed Write failures with Windows XP
We have Windows XP users who have their desktop folders on a Samba share. Some of them have been getting Delayed Write Failure messages recently on the cookies/index.dat file. At first I thought it was a fluke related to a network outage we experienced, but now I'm finding out it had been happening previously, and it's still going on. This is Samba 2.2.5 on SuSE Linux SLES7 on S/390. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks. One respondent suggested giving all users admin authority to the share, but that's not acceptable for a number of reasons, and since the problem isn't consistent, I don't see why this would help or be necessary. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

Not an option for the time being. Does anyone have an idea why this is happening? I don't see why permissions would be an issue for this situation and no other, especially given that the users aren't having trouble with any other files. -Original Message- From: Ken Schneider [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, December 24, 2002 9:51 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: Re: [Samba] Delayed Write failures with Windows XP Or you could try the follwing link: http://acl.bestbits.at/ Extended ACL's helped with this type of problem here.
