Hi I'm currently using a windows image processing application that regularly writes the user's image adjustments out to a 'sidecar' file in the same directory as the original image. When the original file is on a local disk this works fine but when the original image is on Samba share, the sidecars are not created. The application reports the following in its log: 2012-07-14 08:35:56.448 | 5452 - 1 | Sidecar - Warn | Rights to save file S:\testImage.nef are not sufficient, expected: Write, Delete - actual: Read, Synchronize Software versions are as follows: Client machine (running image processing software): Windows 7 x64 Professional SP1 Server: SuSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP2, Samba Version 3.6.3-0.24.4-2794-SUSE-CODE11-x86_64 I have checked that the share I have configured is writeable. The entry in smb.conf for the share is: [shared] comment = Shared Folder inherit acls = Yes path = /home/shared read only = No My global settings are as follows: [global] workgroup = 9Fairways printing = cups printcap name = cups printcap cache time = 750 cups options = raw map to guest = Bad User logon path = \\%L\profiles\.msprofile logon home = \\%L\%U\.9xprofile logon drive = P: domain logons = No domain master = No netbios name = server security = user usershare allow guests = Yes usershare max shares = 20 map archive = no ldap suffix passdb backend = smbpasswd wins support = Yes The application vendor is telling me that the problem is with Linux but I wonder if their code my be misreading the file permissions. Is there anyway I could prove this one way or the other? If any further information is needed, do let me know. Best regards Bruce
