Trying out the new DFS support in samba 2.2 i can't seem to get it to
work.
All the docs mention that a configure parameter is needed to build in
dfs support. Do the binary rpms on the samba site have dfs support
built in?
I notice that if i give a bogus option in the smb.conf file it will
complain about it in log.smb, would it complain about the dfs options if
samba was built without dfs support?
I have specified host msdfs = yes in my [global] section and msdfs root
= yes in one of my shares.
In that share i have tried creating a symlink as specified in the
documentation, but have also tried several other smb syntaxes.
[root@ou119028 dfs]# ls -l
total 4
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Apr 27 17:06 five ->
msdfs:ou119028/digitalNoise
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Apr 27 17:06 four ->
msdfs:\\ou119028\digitalNoise
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 15 Apr 27 17:05 readme.txt
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 29 Apr 27 17:06 six ->
msdfs://ou119028/digitalNoise
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Apr 27 17:03 three ->
msdfs:ou119028\digitalNoise
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Apr 27 16:50 two ->
msdfs:horoko\YetMoreNoise
My test client can only read the readme.txt file and does not see
anything else in the share.
My test client (win95 with dfs service driver) can navigate DFS shares
on an NT4 server.
