Hi all,
First posting so bear with me if I'm asking something previously answered -
can't find a easy way of searhcing the archives.
We've been using samba 2.2.8 on Solaris 8 for some time but only with NT
&
2000 clients. About to roll out XP but we're getting errors attempting to
access files and dirs on a successfully mapped share, i.e..
We can map a drive successfully using XP, and can even get a directory
listing as long as my cwd is not the shared drive. Any command I try while
sitting in the root of the mapped drive fails with a simple "Incorrect
function" or "The current directory is invalid." error depending
on whether
the command attempts to access files in the mapped drive or not.
I tried earlier versions of Samba and found that if I downgraded to 2.2.4 it
worked ok but 2.2.6 failed, as did 3.0.2.
All versions have been compiled with on the Solaris 8 system with gcc
2.95.3.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Gavin
Example:
C:\WINNT>net use * \\aklxp061\resp_dnld /user:airnz-nz\xgregg
The password or user name is invalid for \\aklxp061\resp_dnld.
Enter the password for 'airnz-nz\xgregg' to connect to
'aklxp061':
Drive Y: is now connected to \\aklxp061\resp_dnld.
The command completed successfully.
C:\WINNT>dir y:
