samba - Mar 2010 - symlinks and Samba 3.4.7

Hi,

we upgraded one of our Solaris 10 (SPARC) machines from Samba 3.0.28
to 3.4.7. Symlinks are used within some shares that point to data outside
the original share path.

While this was no problem with Samba 3.0.28 access is denied with 3.4.7.
I thought that 'wide links = Yes' and 'follow symlinks = Yes' in
smb.conf
should fix that but samba still gives me no access to the symlinked data.

Any thoughts ?

nest regards
