[Samba] symlinks with missing destination are hidden - can they be shown?
If a directory contains a symlink to a file which is missing, then samba hides the file when listing the directory. This leads to unpleasant behaviour on the client: james@palermo:~$ ls test james@palermo:~$ rm -rf test rm: cannot remove directory `test': Directory not empty The only workaround I have is to remove the directory on the server. Can samba be configured not to hide the symlink? thanks, -- James Casbon Point Nine Financial Technologies Ltd Work : +44 (0) 20 7340 9544
