[jcifs] JCIFS access from unix to windows

[Mohan Radhakrishnan]

Hi,
     We have the jcifs log level set to 10 and now we have gathered log
dumps.


I think we need to find a way to interpret the logs and also check why
access is denied even to ' getShareSecurity'

    public void getShareSecurity( SmbFile file ) throws Exception {

    	ACE[] security;

        security =  file.getShareSecurity(true);
        
        System.out.println("Share Permissions:");
        
        for (int ai = 0; ai < security.length; ai++) {
            System.out.println(security[ai].toString());
        }
        
        System.out.println("Security:");
        
        security = file.getSecurity(true);
        
        for (int ai = 0; ai < security.length; ai++) {
            System.out.println(security[ai].toString());
        }
    }

Thanks,
Mohan

Hi,

     :-)

     This is a production box governed by PCI regulations and guarded by
a very unhelpful and political infrastructure team.

     I was thinking of HP-UX network log tracing tools. Never used it
and also not sure how to trace only SMB calls.

Use a "sniffing" pc with two bridged ethernet cards (which is a function
available both in Linux and Windows) running wireshark, connected the
Unix
and HP-UX systems through it.

You may even use a sniffing pc with a single ethernet card provided you
connect the three units through a smart switch with monitoring
capability.
