I am having trouble installing applications onto a Vista machine from
a Samba 3.0.23a share. I keep getting a Windows error telling me that
the network path could not be found after I double click setup.exe.
I can copy the files from the share to my local hard drive and install
no problem. I can also copy them to a W2K share and install from
there no problem. So, it seems the be Samba related.
Everthing else that I have tried with Samba and Vista seems to be
working. I can execute other programs from the share, for example.
Has anyone else noticed this problem? And have a solution?
Hi,
yes i have seen this behavior from time to time on win-XP/win2k/win98,
especialy
for older installers.
i guess it is a problem of the installer using a mix of systemcalls to
access the files
intermixing long filenames and short ones, and confusing samba at this
point.
AFAIR i have seen this behaviour on w2k-Server-shares too.
