Package: samba Version: 2:3.2.5-4 Severity: important When investigating bug #510564 I noticed this
1. Share an ext3 folder with samba on a Debian host 2. On a Debian client, use nautilus to create two different files on the samba share, file.txt and file.abc. Put different content in the two different files 3. Rename file.abc to be file.TXT 4. Note that silently, file.txt has been destroyed. The icon in nautilus may still be visible, but on opening it, it will show the contents of the original file.abc Because this involves dataloss, it may be considered a grave bug. This is fixed by forcing case sensitive yes in the samba share (on the server). In this case, file.txt and file.TXT are different. It seems that "auto" case-sensitive doesn't work properly. I used SWAT for the samba server admin. Debian in both cases (server and client) was Sid. I leave #510564 open because while I think samba should be fixed, it should also be fixed in Nautilus, because there is no guarantee about the samba server being a fixed version. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages samba depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0 1.5.24 Debian configuration management sy ii libacl1 2.2.47-2 Access control list shared library ii libattr1 1:2.4.43-1 Extended attribute shared library ii libc6 2.7-18 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcomerr2 1.41.3-1 common error description library ii libcups2 1.3.8-1lenny4 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libgnutls26 2.4.2-4 the GNU TLS library - runtime libr ii libkrb53 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-5 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.11-1 OpenLDAP libraries ii libpam-modules 1.0.1-5 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime 1.0.1-5 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 1.0.1-5 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpopt0 1.14-4 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libtalloc1 1.2.0~git20080616-1 hierarchical pool based memory all ii libwbclient0 2:3.2.5-4 client library for interfacing wit ii logrotate 3.7.7-2 Log rotation utility ii lsb-base 3.2-20 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii procps 1:3.2.7-11 /proc file system utilities ii samba-common 2:3.2.5-4 Samba common files used by both th ii update-inetd 4.31 inetd configuration file updater ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-12 compression library - runtime samba recommends no packages.
