Hi, I've made a samba share on a linux box (Redhat 4.0 kernel 2.6.9-5.EL) with Samba samba-3.0.10-1.4E samba-common-3.0.10-1.4E samba-swat-3.0.10-1.4E Here's my config file : [global] workgroup = xxxxxxxxxxx server string = test_smb security = DOMAIN password server = xxxxxxxxxx username map = /etc/samba/smb_user.txt unix password sync = Yes ntlm auth = No log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 os level = 1 preferred master = No local master = No domain master = No dns proxy = No wins server = x.x.x.x, x.x.x.x ldap ssl = no [interface] comment = Partage interface path = /interface read only = No create mask = 00 force create mode = 0660 security mask = 00 force directory mode = 02660 directory security mask = 00 force unknown acl user = Yes inherit permissions = Yes nt acl support = No case sensitive = No hide special files = Yes hide unreadable = Yes map archive is set to yes. I've no pb when creating a new file, modifing data inside this file : the archive attribute (x for user) is set on. But when i only rename it, the archive attribute is still "off". As in windows, when a file is renamed, it should be set to "on" Thks for your help Alex
That's an NTFS semantic. Samba honors the archive bit when set by the client, but does not internally set the bit on any change.
