In Samba 3.0.21, a directory with -rx-rx-rx permissions could be used as a "drop box": users could put stuff in there but not list that directory. This functionality broke some time later in the 3.0 series. Under http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.samba.internals/42646 find a patch that restores this. Starting with http://news.gmane.org/find-root.php?message_id=%3cE1M4F1b%2d002FaA%2d7K%40intern.SerNet.DE%3e this patch was extensively discussed. Volker
Pushed to master and 3.4. I think this also should go into 3.2.x and 3.3.x. Jeremy.
Created attachment 4219 [details] Additional change. Volker, I think this additional change on top of your patch makes the code a little clearer and fixes the comment to match the code. Can you review please and push to master/3.4 if you agree ? Thanks, Jeremy.
Created attachment 4220 [details] patches for 3.3 Thanks, pushed with reformatting. Attached find the patches for 3.3. Volker
Hi, Karolin! I think the review process has been fulfilled by Jeremy and me looking at both patches. Can you push that to 3.3? Thanks, Volker
Yes, we can! ;-) Pushed. Closing out bug report. Thanks!
