samba - Mar 2012 - follow symlinks + allow insecure wide links

Hi List,

i did a fresh  3.6.3 installation and have a problem with symlinks:

a look in the logfiles shows:

doing parameter follow symlinks = yes
doing parameter allow insecure wide links = yes
doing parameter unix extensions = no

but when i try to access a symlink the log message is:

check_reduced_name: Bad access attempt: link-test/desktop.ini is a symlink
outside the share path

i thought my parameter set would allow following symlinks pointing somewhere
outside the share path?

regards

frank
