hallo MANDRAKE!
i have a strange samba-problem in Mandrake 7.1
thats what i did:
a directory (called "transfer") is shared with samba and is accessible
for group "inhouse". its located at /dev/hda5 (physical)
/share/transfer (logical).
i create another share for the same group. i do this with the copy
share function in webmin and point the directory to /dev/hdb1
(physical) /mnt/data1/mp3 softlinked to /share/data/mp3 (logical). all
filepermissions (unix) are the same, all ownerships are the same, all
samba settings are the same.
but ehen accessing the share i get:
[2000/08/03 20:56:49, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection(487)
Can't change directory to /share/data/mp3 (Permission denied)
here is the relevant part from the smb.conf:
[transfer]
path = /share/transfer
force group = transfer
writable = yes
comment = achtung, jeder kann loeschen!
force directory mode = 0770
create mode = 0770
delete readonly = yes
directory mode = 0770
wide links = no
force create mode = 0770
[mp3]
path = /share/data/mp3
comment = MP3s
copy = transfer
the only difference i see is that the directory-to-get-shared is on
another partition.. can that be the reason??
in hope of a solution,
PAT
