I'm struggling with following symlinks with samba on the recent
versions. I cannot use mount -bind as I've seen others suggest. This is
for my mythtv backend, so I'm using the rename script to create nice
names for the recordings.
Anyway, I can map the drive from Windows XP and Windows 7, and see
symlinked files, but I cannot open or copy them as I used to be able to do.
My system is opensuse 12.2. My smb.conf looks like:
[global]
unix extensions = no
workgroup = WORKGROUP
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
printcap cache time = 750
cups options = raw
map to guest = Bad User
include = /etc/samba/dhcp.conf
logon path = \\%L\profiles\.msprofile
logon home = \\%L\%U\.9xprofile
logon drive = P:
usershare allow guests = No
wins server wins support = No
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
valid users = %S, %D%w%S
browseable = No
read only = Yes
inherit acls = Yes
follow symlinks = Yes
wide links = Yes
Thanks,
James
