Hello all,
if i set hide unreadable on the homes share on a samba server (2.2.7
acting as domain controller) Win 2K clients (XP and NT 4 are OK) get the
messages:
"The directory you are creating may be not writable do you want to
continue?" (translated from german)
while creating a directory with the explorer, a mkdir does not give that
error. The created directory is writable. The explorer creates a tmp
file in the newly created directory and somehow decides to give that
useless warning.
Does anyone else see this kind of error? Or knows what the Windows
explorer is testing for?
By the way, i want to set the hide unreadable to let the NT 4.0 users
only see their own home directory instead of the whole list.
