[Samba] Found MS-Word 97 Samba bug : diagnostic found!
Hi all, I have a bug with Version 2.2.3a-12 for Debian GNU/Linux (custom 2.4.20 kernel with aacraid support (DELL PowerEdge 1650 with RAID mirror, etc)): Some users have, SOMETIMES, a READ ONLY set on files, where no one except them use this files. I'm in oplocks=false because of MS-Excel 97 issues, and, no need of fast performances at the moment (10 users). I put a /home/public with nobody.nogroup rights. Each users is in nogroup group too. force user=nobody on this share set force create mask=0664 on this share And, here what I have!!! : First file has NO PROBLEM, second one HAS READ ONLY ERROR, (but not if the file is REOPEN again): -rw-rw-r--1 nobody nogroup 37888 Feb 14 11:46 test_file_1.doc -rwxr--r--1 nobody nogroup 37376 Feb 14 2003 test_file_2.doc Look at date Feb 14 2003: erkk!! this is not a standard date!!! If I touch the file, as root, the date is now ok: -rw-rw-r--1 nobody nogroup 37888 Feb 14 11:46 test_file_1.doc -rwxr--r--1 nobody nogroup 37376 Feb 14 11:59 test_file_2.doc Then, the user can access the file, with READ/WRITE permissions Please consider too that -rwxr--r-- has nothing to do with 664 permissions!! :-/ I think there is a mess with Samba and Word 97 .. I found that Samba 2.0.4 has a fix for Word 97 issues. Seems there's still one lurking around? Or did I configured badly??

I presume that's output from ls -l. I would hazard a guess that your server and client clocks are not in sync. If you're on linux, try ls --full-time Cheers, Waider. -- We are experiencing MVS processor spin loops, the programs are running while holding a disabled CPU.

And yes again, client and server are not in sync. Do you mean that way I've to install ntpd and sync date/hour mechanism between samba server and clients? Why? Is there any paragraph on this in the samba howto collection? Thanks a lot!! -- Jean-Paul ARGUDO -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba

You don't have to, but it's probably a good idea. Note that you can run net time \\sambaserver /set on the clients to sync them up with the server. Why? Is there any paragraph on this in the samba howto collection? Dunno. Waider. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] / Yes, it /is/ very personal of me. It's a kludge to stop some old systems from breaking, as far as I know.

Do you mean that way I've to install ntpd and sync date/hour mechanism between samba server and clients? It's always a good idea to have the workstations in sync. Type this in a .bat file, that loads at start: NET TIME \\SERVER /SET /YES -- frankie -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
