Wil Clouser, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number> Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags: kernel-bug-exists-upstream kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER As well, please remove the tag: needs-upstream-testing Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-0803 needs-upstream-testing ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/816663 Title: Failure to set permissions on Samba share via CIFS Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This bug is a clone of the automatically closed bug 496840. Please see that bug for attachments, discussion, and comments. Binary package hint: samba I'm trying to use a samba share via CIFS and am encountering problems when trying to copy or move files onto the share. If I create a file directly on the share it works as expected (using my umask for permissions) but copying or moving result in errors. To reproduce: root@boris:/mnt# mount -t cifs //arctic/holding /mnt/testo -o credentials=/root/arctic.cifs.key,domain=Island,iocharset=utf8 root@boris:/mnt# mkdir ~/z root@boris:/mnt# mv ~/z testo/ mv: failed to preserve ownership for `testo/z': Permission denied mv: preserving permissions for `testo/z': Permission denied root@boris:/mnt# ls -ld testo/z drwx--S--- 2 clouserw root 0 2009-12-14 21:38 testo/z root@boris:/mnt# umask 0022 This looks _a lot_ like (and might be a duplicate/dependent on) debian bug 532153 ("cifs reports EACCES instead of EOPNOTSUPP for acls" http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=532153). It looks like that bug is still open though and I'm not sure what the progress is or if there is a workaround in the mean time. Neither my server or client have ACLs on their filesystem. One maybe relevent note is that mounting the same share from OS X and moving files onto it works as expected with permissions being preserved. OS X has a concept of ACLs on by default. I'm attaching an strace.
