Hi list,
I have home made program, which uses File Alteration Monitor library
to watch samba log files for new file creation in samba share
directory.
This technique works fine when I use GNU/Linux machine as client and
it fails when I use Windows machine as client. The cause of failure
is, samba server creates different pattern of logs and sometimes it
does not create log entries on new file creation.
New file creation is done by copying file to share directory after
mounting it.
Log configuration of samba server is
log file = /var/log/samba/%U.log
log level = 2
Below is log entries when GNU/Linux is used.
[2007/03/20 18:01:18, 2] smbd/open.c:open_file(245)
b2bc1ir opened file outbox/echoserver read=Yes write=Yes (numopen=1)
[2007/03/20 18:01:18, 2] smbd/reply.c:reply_mknew(1324)
new file outbox/echoserver
[2007/03/20 18:01:18, 2] smbd/close.c:close_normal_file(270)
b2bc1ir closed file outbox/echoserver (numopen=0)
Below is log entries when Windows is used.
[2007/03/25 21:48:53, 2] smbd/open.c:open_file(245)
b2bc1ir opened file outbox/test.txt read=No write=Yes (numopen=2)
[2007/03/25 21:48:53, 2] smbd/close.c:close_normal_file(270)
b2bc1ir closed file outbox/test.txt (numopen=1)
[2007/03/25 21:48:54, 2] smbd/open.c:open_file(245)
b2bc1ir opened file outbox/test.txt read=Yes write=No (numopen=2)
[2007/03/25 21:48:54, 2] smbd/close.c:close_normal_file(270)

[2007/03/25 21:48:54, 2] smbd/open.c:open_file(245)
b2bc1ir opened file outbox/test.txt read=Yes write=No (numopen=2)
[2007/03/25 22:00:07, 2] smbd/open.c:open_file(245)
I use CentOS v4.4 and Samba version 3.0.10-1.4E.9
What could be wrong in my setup?
Please advice,
Thanks in advance,
Bala

Hi, I trashed my stupid idea/program and wrote samba VFS module to do the same thing.

Hi, Firstly I would like to say about the problem. Whenever new file is created by samba clients in samba directory shares, they should be moved to another directory. The solution is very straight forward. My VFS module keeps list of fds when a file is opened with write/read-write flag in open() vfs function. On close() vfs function, if passed fd is in list of fds made in open() function, is moved to well known directory. I started modifying skel_transparent.c file and kept only connect(), disconnect(), open() and close() functions. I hope this gives some clarity.
