Error Mapping Clearcase Views/Vobs using Samba

[Nico De Ranter]

We are using samba-2.0.5a on Solaris (2.6) to access our views without problems.
Our samba config looks like:

[view]
        comment = Views for VisionClick (G2 project)
        path = /view
        read only = no
        oplocks = no
        locking = yes
        browseable = yes

You have "printable = yes" should that be like that? 

Hope this helps.

Nico
