We have upgraded from Samba 2.2.7a to 2.2.8a. We have samba running our our two UNIX file servers, one is Solaris 8 and the other RedHat Linux 7.3. Samba was compiled as follows: configure --prefix=/opt/samba --with-acl-support --with-quotas Right now it doesn't looks like changing file/folder permissions are working from W2K. When we right click on a file/folder and go to the security tab it show the current file permissions fine. But when you try to change them it is being ignored. No error messages are being shown. No matter what we do no changes are happening on the UNIX side. This occurs on the Linux file server too. This did work in 2.2.7a and compiled the same way as above. Is there something different in 2.2.8a, or is this a bug???? Thanks... ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------- C. J.

[Samba] Samba 2.2.8a file permissions not working
Are you able to select a new permission (user or group) yet after you apply, the perm. goes away? If so that is the problem I am having and have found no resolution. I have the same problem w/ 2.2.8 and 3.0 Regards, Matthew Twigg Network Administrator SunGard Insurance Systems | 313 Speen Street Natick, MA 01760 (508) 903-1758 Copyright ? 2003 by SunGard Data Systems Inc.

[Samba] Samba 2.2.8a file permissions not working
Errol, Just to ad to the mix, I am running RH 9 with the 2.6 test1 kernel with ACL compiled in. I can fully manipulate ACLs on ext3 with setfacl. I thought the RPMS had --with-acl-support turned on...but I could be wrong. I did a manual compile of 2.2.8 with all my fav. switches on and got the same result.

Red Hat 9 does not have ACL support in the default kerner NOR do Red Hat's modified kernels up to 2.4.21, so my guess is your RH 7.3 does not have ACL support either.
