[Samba] How to fetch Summary Information for a text document on win XP
Hello I have been struggling past few days on how to fetch SummaryInformation or DocumentSummaryInformation ADS stream attached with a text document on windows XP. SummaryInformation and DocumentSummaryInformation streams keep property data such as author, title, catagory and so on (edited through property->summary menu on XP). I am using Samba version 3.2.6 on a Linux box. cli_qpathinfo_streams() lets me get list of all streams associated with the text file. I can get most ADS streams as <file-name>:<stream-name> , using smbget but this request fails for <filename>:\ 005DocumentSummaryInformation with error NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_INVALID. Below is the smbclient session output smb: \> allinfo docu.txt altname: docu.txt create_time: Thu Sep 24 13:54:32 2009 IST access_time: Fri Nov 27 11:23:05 2009 IST write_time: Thu Nov 26 15:42:10 2009 IST change_time: Thu Nov 26 15:52:38 2009 IST stream: [::$DATA], 214 bytes stream: [:DocumentSummaryInformation:$DATA], 120 bytes stream: [:SebiesnrMkudrfcoIaamtykdDa:$DATA], 128 bytes stream: [:SummaryInformation:$DATA], 272 bytes stream: [:myjpg:$DATA], 3196 bytes stream: [:stream:$DATA], 16 bytes stream: [:stream1:$DATA], 16 bytes stream: [:stream2:$DATA], 16 bytes stream: [:stream3:$DATA], 16 bytes stream: [:stream4:$DATA], 16 bytes stream: [:stream6:$DATA], 16 bytes stream: [:vver:$DATA], 16 bytes stream: [:{4c8cc155-6c1e-11d1-8e41-00c04fb9386d}:$DATA], 0 bytes smb: \> get docu.txt:stream1 getting file \docu.txt:stream1 of size 16 as docu.txt:stream1 (1.4 kb/s) (average 1.4 kb/s) smb: \> get docu.txt:\\005DocumentSummaryInformation NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_INVALID opening remote file \docu.txt:\005DocumentSummaryInformation smb:\> get docu.txt:\005DocumentSummaryInformation NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_INVALID opening remote file \docu.txt:\005DocumentSummaryInformation smb: \> get docu.txt:\005DocumentSummaryInformation NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_INVALID opening remote file \docu.txt:\005DocumentSummaryInformation smb: \> get docu.txt:DocumentSummaryInformation NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_INVALID opening remote file \docu.txt:DocumentSummaryInformation Does anybody have knowledge on this issue?
