[Samba] Re: URGENT!!!!! Problem: outlook.pst with samba 3.0.21c!!!!!!!!

[Jörg Nissen]

You should give us a look at your smb.conf. AFAIK from my very own 
experience: 3.0.21c somehow behaves different from 3.0.20 with the same 
smb.conf. Maybe you have to set some values which did not have to be set 
before.

Subject: URGENT!!!!! Problem: outlook.pst with samba 3.0.21c!!!!!!!!


Hello Samba-Gurus!!

Following really really important problem:

Yesterday evening, we have upgraded our Solaris9-Samba-Fileserver from
Samba-Version 3.0.11 to 3.0.21c. All worked fine.
But today, we have following problem:

Some users, which outook.pst-file is situated on the samba-fileserver
in their home-share, cannot send or get mails via Outlook2000 und
Outlook2003.
When we try to change the path to the PST-file, we get the messages,
that the file cannot be accessed.

Here is a sample of the samba-log of one of the clients:

[2006/03/10 07:39:03, 2] smbd/dosmode.c:unix_mode(70)
  unix_mode(outlook.pst) inheriting from .
[2006/03/10 07:39:03, 2] smbd/dosmode.c:unix_mode(78)
  unix_mode(outlook.pst) inherit mode 40700
[2006/03/10 07:39:03, 2] smbd/open.c:open_file(350)
  abm opened file outlook.pst read=Yes write=No (numopen=2)
[2006/03/10 07:39:03, 2] smbd/close.c:close_normal_file(308)
  FRANKFURT+abm closed file outlook.pst (numopen=1)
[2006/03/10 07:39:03, 2] smbd/dosmode.c:unix_mode(70)
  unix_mode(outlook.pst) inheriting from .
[2006/03/10 07:39:03, 2] smbd/dosmode.c:unix_mode(78)
  unix_mode(outlook.pst) inherit mode 40700
[2006/03/10 07:39:03, 2] smbd/open.c:open_file(350)
  abm opened file outlook.pst read=Yes write=No (numopen=2)
[2006/03/10 07:39:03, 2] smbd/close.c:close_normal_file(308)
  FRANKFURT+abm closed file outlook.pst (numopen=1)
[2006/03/10 07:39:03, 2] smbd/dosmode.c:unix_mode(70)

What here stand out is, that samba try to open the outlook.pst - file
with READ=YES and WRITE=NO... this can not be right

Another thing is, that after the samba-upgrade, we don´t get the
absolut pathes from the opened files in samba. In SWAT we only get
something like: outlook/outlook.pst
Normally it should look like: /homes/xxx/outlook/outlook.pst

Does have anybody a solution or idea??

THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT!!!!

THX!!!!
