All,
Is anyone else experiencing this...
SuSE 10.2 openOffice 2.3.0.1 (updated to 2.3.0.1.2-4.1 )
When attempting save a modified word format document to a cifs share I get the 'could not create backup copy' error message (usually indicates a cifs file locking problem).
When I do the same either on the local file system or with an open office document on any file system I have no problems at all.
Last time I checked it was not reported in bugzilla, and if anyone is experiencing the same problem I will report this, otherwise I will have to spend some time tweaking samba share settings.
No problems here. Client is a openSuSE 10.3 laptop. Server is SuSE Linux 10.0. The 10.3 cifs mounts are: //nemesis/samba on /mnt/nemesis type cifs (rw,mand) //nemesis/david on /mnt/nemesis-david type cifs (rw,mand) //nemesis/config on /mnt/nemesis-cfg type cifs (rw,mand) mounted with #!/bin/bash mount.cifs //nemesis/samba /mnt/nemesis/ -o username=david,uid=1000,password=<mypass>,noperm mount.cifs //nemesis/david /mnt/nemesis-david/ -o username=david,uid=1000,password=<mypass>,noperm mount.cifs //nemesis/config /mnt/nemesis-cfg/ -o username=david,uid=1000,password=<mypass>,noperm Samba 3.0.26a-0.1.82-1474-SUSE-SL10.0, the relevant portions of the smb.conf are [global] workgroup = RB_LAW server string = Samba %v map to guest = Bad User log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 100 name resolve order = wins lmhosts bcast time server = Yes socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 printcap name = cups disable spoolss = Yes show add printer wizard = No os level = 69 preferred master = Yes domain master = Yes dns proxy = No wins support = Yes hosts allow = 192.168.7., 192.168.6., 192.168.8., 192.168.5., 127., 66.76.63.60 printing = cups print command = lpq command = %p lprm command = [homes] comment = Home Directories read only = No browseable = No [samba] comment = Base Samba Share path = /home/samba valid users = david admin users = david force user = david force group = skyline read only = No inherit permissions = Yes browseable = No Here is a guess, try mounting your home share and see if you get the same results. If you do, you still have problems. If not, then try to include an "admin users" config on your other share naming you as the admin user, restart samba and try again.
