@Mason Kramer: Change "wide symlinks" to "wide links" and make sure it's
in the [global] section. It's working for me in 10.04:

Symlinks are not getting followed on the server. My Mac can seem them
but c
@joel garbor: the option for symlinks out of the shared directory is called
"wide links = yes" (not wide SYMlinks)
on lucid i also had to install some other packages to make it work (like
samba-tools smbfs libpam-mount winbind) sorry i don't know which one does the
trick (i believe smbfs)

@prygme: sounds like your issue is different. Also the bug was about
CIFS mounts, which are affected by mount options (-o nounix) and not by
smb.conf parameters. Please open a separate bug if you want to report a

I'd no problem with symlinks.Then I've updated to Lucid Lynx, and now I
discover this bug.
I've added the following lines to /etc/smb.conf :
follow symlinks = yes
wide symlinks = yes
unix extensions = no
No success. I can't change to symlinked libraries when I'm connecting
samba from windows xp
I've tried with nounix and nolinux (as proposed by the cifs devs) and

using a different version than the server and there could be some
issues (I know rsync does a lot).
Unfortunately, I can't control the server, but I moved all

BUT it's still not clear to me what the "right" way to follow symlinks
is when unix extensions is turned on.
