I imagine you're running a later server... maybe you could test it for me?
it's simple just do a "stat " on a directory from its parent and
compare it to when you do a "stat *"... on my system and some RH 8.0 systems
others have tested the results vary by 1 sec, consistently.

yeah, I reverted to NFS since this little fiasco... I wanted samba because I
have a mixed env and didn't want two servers running... sigh.

well try to upgrade the server to 2.2.7a and see if thins change.
I think we fixed some bugs with dos times in 2.2.x series.

Btw why do you use smb to share beetwen 2 unix machines?
Currently nfs is still better as it respect unix semantics ...

sorry if I didn't provide all relevant info.

client host: RH 7.2 (2.4.18-18.7 kernel), samba 2.2.1a-4
server host: RH 7.0 (2.4.9 kernel), samba 2.0.10-0.7

> However, this seem a kernel bug in smbfs

if this is a bug in the kernel... the question on which side: the client
(which is rather recent) or the server (which is a little older)... and in
either case then I should be posting to which mailing list?

You are probably using smbfs not samba, so what matter is the kernel you
have not samba version (no we do not develop smbfs as part of samba.
You do not tell which is the OS you mount from.
You should know dos system had 2 seconds time resolution, we also
emulate this behavior in samba code.
However, this seem a kernel bug in smbfs.

Simo.

[Samba] weird stat()

2002-12-21 Thread Erick Calder
hei everyone,

I have a weird problem: if I do a

# cd /somedir; stat somesubdir |grep Modify

where /somedir is some directory on an SMB-mounted filesystem I get one
datetime... but I I do:

# cd /somedir; stat * |grep Modify

for the same directory I get a Modify time which consistently differs by 1
second.  As I'm writing a perl module to detect differences in a filesystem
and rely on the mtime, I'm crawling up walls...

I'm running RH 7.2 with a 2.4.18-18.7 kernel and samba 2.2.1a-4.  and I've
had this weird behaviour confirmed by someone on OPN #redhat running a RH
8.0 system with samba 2.2.7.

wtf?

thx - ekkis

[Samba] account aliases?

2002-06-09 Thread Erick Calder

hello everyone,

I've looked through Google and this list's archives but have come up empty.
here's may question: I have an NT laptop where I log in as administrator, I
have a linux box with an account of my one (erick).  Everytime I try to
access the filesystem on the Linux box, NT sends credentials for
administrator which of course, is wrong.  when the challenge fail I'm
prompted for an account/password.  I would like to keep using my admin
account on NT but I don't want to create an "administrator" account on
Linux, or rename my "erick" account.  but I want it to automatically know
it's me.  so my question is: is there a way in which I can create an account
alias in Samba? i.e. a Samba account called "administrator" which maps to
the Linux account "erick"? or is there a better way to do this?
