Public bug reported:
This problem started immediately after upgrading to Ubuntu 8.10.
Bug #240588 may be related to this, but it doesn't give many details.
On a mounted cifs filesystem, some operations that should succeed, fail with
the ENOTDIR
error. Example:
$ cd /shares/public
$ touch example
touch: setting times of `example': Not a directory
$ ls -la example
-rwxrw---- 1 eric root 0 Jan 21 13:27 example
$ echo "test" >> example
$ ls -la example
-rwwrw---- 1 eric root 5 Jan 21 13:27 example
$ echo "test" > example
-bash: example: Not a directory
$ chmod 600 example
chmod: changing permissions of `example': Not a directory
By strace-ing the commadns above, I gather that the operations that fail
include at least:
chmod
utimes
chown
open with the O_TRUNC bit set
here is the /shares/public's entry in /etc/fstab:
//underdog/public /shares/public cifs
defaults,nodev,uid=eric,file_mode=0644,dir_mode=0755,credentials=/etc/smbserver.public
The client is running Ubuntu 8.10, with all current updates applied.
The server is running Ubuntu 7.04 with the 3.0.24-2ubuntu1.6 package.
