I have shared a directory from the server using the 'shares-admin' program -- it is read/write
but I get problems in addressing files on the client - for instance: if i issue the command 'touch testfile' on the directory I get touch: setting times of `testfile': Permission denied If i try to untar an archive (tar -xvf) I get multiple messages (sample): Cannot utime: Operation not permitted bdeditor.css tar: bdeditor.css: Cannot utime: Operation not permitted BdEditor-mined.js tar: BdEditor-mined.js: Cannot utime: Operation not permitted bgmusic.js tar: bgmusic.js: Cannot utime: Operation not permitted blank.html the last (relevant) line of my fstab file on the client machine looks like this : //username-desktop/keep /home/username/keep smbfs rw 0 0 I also am only allowed to save files *some of the time* and not to use cp - partly works Can anyone advise me as to what is the problem -- something to do with rsync yes? -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
