We run Samba 3.0.24 on a FC5 and RHEL4-AS systems. Works great with
windows clients, and OSX clients work great with it too except for one
problem:
Whenever I restart samba (with /etc/init.d/smb restart) any OSX client
that has a samba share open will lose that connection, and so if a
person had a file open and was editing, all changes made since the
last save are lost. This of course does NOT happen with windows
clients, they are smart enough to recognize the link is reconnected.
But OSX losses the link completely, and the share has to be remounted,
which is really silly.
I'm not sure if there is some smb.conf setting that will fix this for
OSX, and not screw things up for windows clients. Or maybe there is an
OSX tweek to make on each client? I searched this list for OSX and
found no similar problems. Arghgh.
Anyone see this behavior and know of a fix.
Our OSX clients are 10.4.9.
Thanks in advance,
Alex
This is normal behavior of OS X, I'm afraid. I would love to have a way
around it too.
