[Bug 270455] New: smb4k UID problem - access denied
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=270455 Summary: smb4k UID problem - access denied Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: i586 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.2 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: admin@different-perspectives.com QAContact: qa@suse.de smb4k worked well under 10.1. Upgraded to 10.2 & smb4k not working. Uninstalled & resinstalled, still NF. Target machine suse 8.3, stable & not changed. smb4k on client machine is creating the share links using the target machine's UIDs rather than the local machine's UID. Access is then denied for the user. I can browse target if I suid to root, so the networking part is working fine. A big difference seems to be that the change from 10.2 to 10.2 on the client machine also required a change from using SMB to CIFS for the shares in smb4k configuration. This is, clearly, completely blocking use of samba shares on 10.2 for us. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

It may be specified as either a username or a numeric uid. This parameter is ignored when the target server supports the CIFS Unix extensions. Hence I added echo 0 > /proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled at the beginning of /etc/init.d/smbfs. BUT it does not work automagicaly at boot time. Apparently /proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled does not exist at this point of time I have to sudo /etc/init.d/smbfs restart to get the right permission. May be - hopefully - there is a better way. Hope that helps -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
