however, this does not seem to work, and I can't find how to turn it on, even though I see that Samba is compiled on Debian with the FAM support.
OK, I got the picture. I hesitate to point this out to you, but smb.conf(5) contains: fam change notify (G) This parameter specifies whether Samba should ask the FAM daemon change notifications in directories so that SMB clients can refresh whenever the data on the server changes. This parameter is only used when your system supports change notifiā cation to user programs, using the FAM daemon. If the FAM daemon is not running, this parameter is automatically disabled. The kernel change notify parameter will take precedence if it is also enabled. Default: fam change notify = yes What does your smb.conf has to say about this parameter? Another option is to try to trace calls to FAM using ltrace. --Amos
