Hello,
I am running Samba 2.0.7 on linux Redhat 7 kernel 2.2.22 as shown below.
[root at serv aviad]# uname -a
Linux serv 2.2.22-7.0.3smp #1 SMP Thu Nov 14 11:51:44 EST 2002 i686 unknown
[root at serv aviad]# /usr/sbin/smbd -V
Version 2.0.7
I encounter a problem with excel files on sharing point which somtimes opens
as a read only files, but I'm sure that only one person is using them at the
same time.
I found an article which explains to add to the smb.conf the two lines:
force security mode = 0200
dos filemode = yes
which didn't solve my problem.
when restarting the samba server I found in the /var/log/samba/log.smb:
(samba log file)
[2004/08/25 16:48:14, 0] param/loadparm.c:map_parameter(1681)
Unknown parameter encountered: "dos filemode"
[2004/08/25 16:48:14, 0] param/loadparm.c:lp_do_parameter(2223)
Ignoring unknown parameter "dos filemode"
So I guess this command is working on later versions, and I'm trying to find
the
command which will work with this samba version.
or to find any other suggestions to solve this problem
below is the global part from the smb.conf and the relevant share point:
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = Samba Server
interfaces = eth0 eth0:0
encrypt passwords = Yes
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 100
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
domain master = No
dns proxy = No
[morel work]
path = /home/morel/work
force directory mode = 0770
writeable = yes
create mode = 0770
force create mode = 0770
directory mode = 0770
force group = Finance
valid users = @Finance
comment = morel work
write list = @Finance
force security mode = 0200
dos filemode = yes
I would appriciate any help,
Thanks in advance
Aviad.
