I tried both a Windows Server with NTFS and a Linux Samba server with ext4. Obviously ext4 allows it.
I tried using smbmount and it worked to copy it this way. Just for the heck of it I tried making a file like this in windows. It doesn't allow it. It won't even allow you to type in : I then made a a:a:a.txt in my linux samba share. Fine in linux (Using command line at least). Open in Windows and it appears as AFBZGB~A ha! I'm quickly getting out of scope with edge case valid file name characters. It seems like this could be a reasonably often issue just because the default screenshot tool uses a time format with colons for the name. I think it should either work (and let windows suffer with silly names) or not work and give a clear warning about invalid characters. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/989914 Title: Can't copy screenshot image to samba share using nautilus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/989914/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
