[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#522388: mount.cifs and samba copy/dirs permissions error

[Pol Hallen]

Package: samba
Version: 2:3.2.5-4
Severity: important


On the server there are:
debian stable with kernel 2.6.28.8 and samba 3.2.5-4

On several clients:
debian stable/testing (tested by various kernels), winXP (sp1/2), ubuntu 8.x

client side:
mount.cifs //192.168.1.130/upload /home/user0/upload -o "username=user0,password=user0"
done

mkdir /home/user0/upload/tmpdir0
touch /home/user0/upload/tmpdir0/tmpfile0
touch /home/user0/upload/tmpfile1

ls -la /home/user0/upload

drwxr-xr-x 2 user0 user0       0 2009-04-03 12:29 tmpdir0
-rwxr--r-- 1 user0 user0       2 2009-04-03 12:32 tmpfile0

-rw-r--r-- 1 user0 user0       1 2009-04-03 12:35 tmpfile1

everything is ok :-)

cp -rv /home/user0/10filesdir /home/user0/upload/
cp: cannot create regular file [...] access denied. [...] for all files

Thus: ONLY if I copy a dir with several files inside it born a copy error!
Because seems that the permission (server side) are correctly, but I don't understand the problem :-/

Using konqueror (smb://192.168.1.130/upload) this problem there isn't: everything is ok. Same with winXP and osx

I tried several options on the server and clients: add/remove unix permissions = yes, on mount: add nodfs, etc.

I wish resolve the problem because I've 2 production servers.

Very thanks :-)
