Running Samba3.0.2a as PDC i have a share like this: [compras] path = /home/compras create mask = 0771 directory mask = 0771 force user = nobody force group = compras valid users = @compras All the files and directories in this share are like this: -rwxrwx--x 1 nobody compras 112K Mar 20 10:37 order603.rtf When a user member of the group "compras" logs in using win98SE and access the share all files are there. But if he press F5 (refresh) or close the file browser and open it again, some files ramdomly disappear. The problem is solved when i comment the line "force user = nobody". Please let me know if you need more info.
I cannot reproduce this locally using your config options. Approximately how many files are we walking about here?
The share has 2515 files in 184 directories. I saw about 10 files and 2 or 3 directories disappearing. I found that this files were under non-english caracters directories, like "Solicitações de Cotação". I can't confirm right now if it only occurs in these cases, but it seems to be.
please test 3.05.pre1 and let me know. There has been a lot of work in this area.
closing as fixed.
closing again (goofed last change).
sorry for the same, cleaning up the database to prevent unecessary reopens of bugs.
