Re: Samba server issue with Windows file properties

[jeanfrancois]

Good day,


Sorry to bother with this issue, if someone has a few minutes to check 
for hint that'd be very helpful.


Thank you.


After trying everything I could think of, still samba doesn't seem to 
properly work with windows special properties:


map archive
map ...

From windows's properties, the Unix properties don't map the archive, 
... states, now can we change them.


Changing for example a file or folder to "hidden" from windows results 
in error request not supported.


Changing the Unix property in the OpenBSD file system don't result in 
showing proper states in Windows.



Do you have hints, does enable the samba map need something else be 
setup in samba configuration or specific to OpenBSD ?



I note the "Archive" should be on by default but don't work, I think the 
issue may not be in samba configuration.



Here are few configuration files:


fstab


/dev/wd1a /home/pub/ ffs rw 1 2


smb.conf


[global]

workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = %h server

socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_KEEPALIVE SO_RCVBUF=8192 
SO_SNDBUF=8192


log file = /var/log/samba/smbd.%m
max log size = 1024
syslog = 1
log level = 3

dns proxy = no

domain master = yes
netbios name = sambaserver
local master = yes

map to guest = Bad User
invalid users = root
unix password sync = yes
domain logons = no
usershare allow guests = yes

#== Share Definitions 

[localshare]
    browseable = yes
    path = /home/pub
    writeable = yes
    guest ok = yes
    valid users = localshare
    create mask = 0755
    directory mask = 0755

    map readonly = yes
    map archive = yes
    map hidden = yes
    map system = yes

Consult the smb.conf man page ("man smb.conf") and read about the
"map readonly", "map archive", "map hidden" and "map system" options.
These may help you.

Re: Samba server issue with Windows file properties

[kasak]

hello.

You should look the option "store dos attributes"

quote: When this parameter is set it will override the parameters map 
hidden, map system, map archive and map readonly and they will behave as 
if they were set to off.


this option is by default ENABLED in samba 4.9. And when it is enabled, 
samba will try to store dos attributes in


extended attributes of filesystem.

OpenBSD ffs does not have support or extended attributes.

And your "map" options does not work, because "store dos attributes" is 
set.


Try to add "store dos attributes = no" to share definition.
