Not expecting anyone to have done such a crazy thing, but hoping someone has any ideas.
Reason: We bought a company (part of a company) and we're migrating the users away from their old servers We're getting the data transferred, but their IT dept says it will take 5 days ... and they need to see this data in read-only format during the transition We were hoping to proxy it through our servers, we've set up a private network so that our users are separate from their users ... their IT is sh*t ... they have 50 servers sitting in racks with 2/3rds of them turned off and no labels and they just let us walk into their server room with no supervision to set up our kit ... if anyone tried this with my kit I'd castrate them Solution 1: we "mount -F smbfs" the file system from their server (gid/dirperms/fileperms set appropriately) and can access it happily through our servers at the prompt and in the file manager windows ... We set up samba to share out the mount point ... at this point I get problems ... When I go to connect from the windows box I get an "Invalid status" message. When I try to smbclient from the server to the share I get a strange issue: jadams@jadlaptop:~$ smbclient \\\\10.31.0.3\\old_emg Enter jadams's password: Domain=[HUDDOM] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.5.5] smb: \> ls NT_STATUS_INVALID_PARAMETER listing \* ls /smb: \> ls / . DR 0 Tue Mar 25 09:48:49 2014 .. DR 0 Tue Jun 10 10:27:02 2014 ... I can't list *, but I can list / I can get files happily, but I can't see them ... I thought it might be something to do with the windows server, so I "mount -F smbfs" a unix samba and then tried to re-share the filesystem and I got the same issues ... does anyone have any ideas?
