Hello to everyone!
I'm new here, pls don't be cruel with me :)
My question is about refreshing explorer after creating (with a right
click ->"New Folder" action) on Samba share.
My configuration is:
FreeBSD 7.2
Samba 3.0.36
Samba shares is on Raid 1 (hardware)(if this may be a reason for something).
In smb.conf i have:
[share]
writeable = yes
path = /home/share
force directory mode = 770
force group = share
force create mode = 770
comment = share
valid users = @share
create mode = 770
directory mode = 770
I cannot understand why sometimes when a user try to create New Folder
directly on share through Explorer browser (from windows machine), the
browser doesn't refresh directories and this lead to subsequent errors
related to actions about renaming created "New Folder"-s. Every time
user have to refresh to see what is going on...
Thanks in advance!
P.S. Sorry for my bad english.
I had some similar problems with samba 3.0 about 2 years ago, but i have no such problems with Samba 3.3 an I would suggest using this last stable version (surrently 3.3.9 from FreeBSD ports) I think RAID (hardware or GEOM) has nothing with that. Sorry for answering in English, but this is the official forum language and I'm afraid if I use our language other people wouldn't understand.
