I am using Samba Version 3.6.0 from the Arch Linux samba 3.6.0-8 and
started to have problems with Max OSX Lion clients. I only have a few,
and the OSX clients are the only ones not working. I have a very simple
samba setup using security = user and a single [home] (not the [homes])
share. Here is the config:
[home]
nt acl support = no
path = /home/samba/home
writable = yes
guest ok = no
browsable = yes
create mask = 770
force create mode = 770
force security mode = 770
force directory mode = 770
directory mask = 770
valid users = @home
hide dot files = yes
hide unreadable = yes
Windows and Linux (cifs) clients all work fine. OSX clients cannot seem
to open any Word or Excel files. When I try to open a file, I get the
following error:
"Word cannot open this document. The document might be in use, the
document might not be a valid Word document, or the file name might
contain invalid characters (for example \,/). (test.doc)"
The samba setup must be fine, since other files (PDF, JPG, PNG, etc) all
work fine, it's just Word and Excel. Any ideas what I have screwed up?
The Mac clients are using Word/Excel 2011.
Thanks.
