 I guess there's a bit of concern that this problem will cause a fair number of
systems to stop working in a way that isn't entirely easy to diagnose or
resolve, so causing a lot of frustration. I have no idea how the community
handles issues like these, but have the samba team notified the relevant
repository and distro managers about the bug?

 Anyway, if anyone wants to apply the source branch fix as I have, I made some
notes about building it for my FC4 machine on my blog at
http://manwiththebones.dyndns.org/wordpress/?p=117. I offer no warranty, but it
might save someone some time.

 Just to let you know, I've built from the svn branch and it has fixed the
problems I was having. 

 Thanks very much for your help,

 That's great. At least I know where the problem is now. Can you tell me how
long the fix is likely to take to filter down to me as an FC4 update, or am I
better off rolling my sleeves up and building it from svn source (I'm assuming
that your changes are in some publically available repository)?

 Thanks,

 Damian Sinclair

[Samba] Issues with cifs mounts following Samba upgrade to 3.0.23a

2006-07-31 Thread Damian Sinclair
My LAN includes a server machine running FC4, with several shares mounted with 
Samba. Yesterday, I upgraded the packages on the FC4 machine, and these 
included Samba, which is now at 3.0.23a. Unfortunately, this seems to have 
broken the mounted shares for my Ubuntu 6.06 installation on my Acer 1682WLMI 
laptop. The cifs module on Ubuntu reports as version 1.39.

 The symptoms are that I can list the files on the cifs mount, but cannot 
access them. Here's an example of the problem from my laptop: 

$ sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.123.2/hde1 /mnt/hde1 -o /
username=[myuser],domain=[mydomain],uid=[myuser],gid=[mygroup] 
Password:
$ file /mnt/hde1/test.mp3 /mnt/hde1/test.mp3: ERROR: cannot read
`/mnt/hde1/test.mp3' (Permission denied)
$ ls -l /mnt/hde1/test.mp3
-rwxrwSrwt 1 [myuser] [mygroup] 5019629 2006-07-31 11:12 /mnt/hde1/test.mp3

If I simply change to smbfs:

$ sudo mount -t smbfs //192.168.123.2/hde1 /mnt/hde1 -o
username=[myuser],domain=[mydomain],uid=[myuser],gid=[mygroup]
Password:
$ file /mnt/hde1/test.mp3 /mnt/hde1/test.mp3: MP3 file with ID3 version 2.4.0 
tag
$ ls -l /mnt/hde1/test.mp3 -rwxr-xr-x 1 [myuser] [mygroup] 5019629 2006-07-31
11:12 /mnt/hde1/test.mp3

 So why not use smbfs? Well, because many of the files I have on the shares have
foreign characters in them, and smbfs mounts using the settings for unicode as I
understand them (iocharset=utf8,codepage=unicode,unicode) don't work at all (no
listing even). This is a different issue, however. For now I'm interested in
working out why the cifs mount is broken seeing as cifs is meant to supercede 
smbfs.

 Any help appreciated,

 Damian Sinclair
