i found that when i used the "msdfs root = no" option on my samba 3.0.24 server running debian etch, it caused my windows clients that have shares mapped to network drives to stop working and i couldn't access them by \\<server>\<share>. in order to get it working on my windows xp computers, i had to restart them and remount the network drives for it to work but it indeed does work. i know that this really isn't the intended purpose of this bug report, but at first i thought that including "msdfs root = no" broke my shares on my windows boxes.
thank you for this workaround as i do not plan on upgrading from the standard debian etch on my server anytime in the near future. -- Access to samba 3.0.24-3.0.25 shares using CIFS is broken on 8.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286828 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in ubuntu. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
