Check with Vista if you have permissions to read the file. I experienced the same problem (that's why I posted another questions to the CIFS mailing list about mapping users with idmap). It always happens when I copy these files from the iPhone. These files result with such permissions:
$ ls -dV IMG_0004.MOV -rw------- 1 enrico staff 12949182 Jul 17 19:39 IMG_0004.MOV owner@:--x-----------:-------:deny owner@:rw-p---A-W-Co-:-------:allow group@:rwxp----------:-------:deny group@:--------------:-------:allow everyone@:rwxp---A-W-Co-:-------:deny everyone@:------a-R-c--s:-------:allow On the Vista side, having mapped with idmap even the staff group to the corresponding Windows group of the enrico user, the file results with the following special permissions for the user enrico: List folder/read data Create files/write data Create folders/append data Write attributes Write extended attributes Here something's missing to me and documentation hasn't helped me (yet)... There's no "read" here. Just set it (on the Vista side it's just one click) and Quicktime will work. I've got a script which resets my files' permissions something like: find /yourdir -type f -exec chmod A- "{}" + find /yourdir -type f -exec chmod 644 "{}" + Hope this helps, Enrico On Fri, Aug 21, 2009 at 11:35 PM, Scott Laird<sc...@sigkill.org> wrote: > Checksum all of the files using something like md5sum and see if > they're actually identical.
