Hello again! I'm posting this for the third time. Can someone help me out on this? Is share modes no longer in 2.2? I tried to look through the docs that came via CVS and also the testparm command and they all indicated that share modes is still around. But when I used smbclient, share modes doesn't appear to be in effect. Many thanks in advance! ----- Forwarded message from Chen Shiyuan <csy@hjc.edu.sg> ----- Date: Thu, 18 Jan 2001 06:46:41 +0800 (SGT) From: Chen Shiyuan <csy@hjc.edu.sg> Reply-To: Chen Shiyuan <csy@hjc.edu.sg> Subject: Fwd: 2.2-alpha-cvs & Share Modes Support? To: samba@samba.org Hello! Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions as to what my problem could be? I have been trying to figure out how come share modes = no doesn't appear to be working but to no avail. I am currently using samba-2.2- aplha-cvs-170100. A sample share declaration in my /etc/smb.conf looks like the following :- [test] comment = testing path = /test read only = no share modes = no Many thanks in advance! ----- Forwarded message from Chen Shiyuan <csy@hjc.edu.sg> ----- Date: Thu, 11 Jan 2001 13:08:01 +0800 (SGT) From: Chen Shiyuan <csy@hjc.edu.sg> Reply-To: Chen Shiyuan <csy@hjc.edu.sg> Subject: 2.2-alpha-cvs & Share Modes Support? To: samba@samba.org Hello! I am currently running samba-2.0.7 and samba-2.2-alpha-cvs (cvs versions updated daily since 2.2alpha1 was released) with identical smb.conf file. When I run smbstatus on the two different machines, the following screens are shown :- SAMBA-2.2.0cvs =============Samba version 2.2.0-alpha1 Service uid gid pid machine ---------------------------------------------- No locked files SAMBA-2.0.7 ==========Samba version 2.0.7 Service uid gid pid machine ---------------------------------------------- No locked files Share mode memory usage (bytes): 1048464(99%) free + 56(0%) used + 56(0%) overhead = 1048576(100%) total Samba-2.2.0cvs is compiled with the following :- ./configure --prefix=/usr --libdir=/etc --with-lockdir=/var/lock/samba -- with-swatdir=/usr/share/swat --localstatedir=/var/log/samba --with- smbmount --with-pam Does anyone know how come under 2.2.0cvs the Share mode memory usage lines do not appear? Is it just that they don't appear anymore or does it imply that share modes is not working on the machine? Also, previously I used share modes = no on some readonly shares and when I run smbstatus on 2.0.7 , the applications and files on the "share modes = no" shares are not listed as locked when people access them but under 2.2.0cvs, they appear similar to those shares which I set share modes = yes .
