https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=476149 Summary: kernel CIFS shares (mount.cifs ) do not show the real permissions on the client Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Factory Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Samba AssignedTo: samba-maintainers@SuSE.de ReportedBy: danielstefanmader@web.de QAContact: samba-maintainers@SuSE.de Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.0.6) Gecko/2009012700 SUSE/3.0.6-0.1.2 Firefox/3.0.6 The Samba server here is SLES 10 SP2. Clients are mounting the needed CIFS shares as real kernel filesystems, either with a mount -t cifs [...] command or via pam_mount, which is essentially the same. On the clients, it is not possible to verify the owner of files and folders in the share, nor is it possible to check the permissions: This is an example of the permissions as they exist on filesystemlevel on the server: drwxrwx--- 2 mader optiker 6 2009-02-16 14:29 madertestdir -rw-rw---- 1 mader optiker 0 2009-02-16 14:29 madertestfile And this is what it looks like on the clients (openSUSE, Ubuntu, Mandriva): drwxrwxrwx 1 mader optiker 0 2009-02-16 14:29 madertestdir -rwxrwSrwx 1 mader optiker 0 2009-02-16 14:29 madertestfile Here, the owner is only correct because the FS is mounted via pam_mount. Using e.g. mount -t cifs //rioja/public /home/01_public -o credentials=/home/mader/.CIFScreds.rioja does not even show the proper owner but root.root instead. This seems a design problem with Samba, even with enabled LinuxExtensions (/proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled = 1) Any solution to this?
