[linux-cifs-client] Re: [Fwd: [Samba] CAP_UNIX disabling]

I just added code to the 2.6 cifs vfs development tree
(http://cifs.bkbits.net/linux-2.5cifs) so that you can toggle negotiating
Unix extensions off or on (default is on) by setting
/proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled to  0 (before you mount to the
server).   This should let you avoid the problem as soon as this is picked
up in the 2.6 tree
