...ieve might be pinned down to a need for a proper samba configuration. The problem: sparse writes (not sure which, either write sparse files to a system that doesn't support them, or vice versa) The system: Zfs-on-linux, samba share Accessing system which is erroring: Win7x64_ult, freefilesync Error message NOTHING I have done to it is fixing, including strict allocate = yes strict allocate = no share:fake_fscaps = 0 #share:fake_fscaps = 0 Current samba config: [global] #security = user #passdb backend = tdbsam workgroup = MYGROUP...

...n " store dos attributes = no" Im getting the same error as above still unfortunately, but im doing some more thorough testing on that. WOud you happen to know if I want the other two options set, and to what, at all? (> strict allocate & share:fake_fscaps = 0) The application (freefilesync) has worked successfully against Samba before I rebuilt the array to a raidz2, from a zfs linear span (no raid parity disk, still other features worked, scrub, crc checking, etc..) and I had no problem in the 6TB 3 disk span. Now I added three disks, , its now ~8TB with two parity disks. The on...

...the logs, but nothing seems to indicate a problem, although I'm not sure what I'd be looking for. I know copying by Windows Explorer results in stripping out permissions, but is there a preferred way on windows to send files to the share for this purpose? I've tested with Robocopy and FreeFileSync. They both result in the behaviour described above. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

...e section. So, yeah, that may have fixed im for the time being not getting the sparse errors, for the first time in 4 months, however, there is a couple other problems, so hopefully they wont come back after these disappear. To be specific the latest issues can be seen by the snippet below on the Freefilesync log. Im trying to dial in the symlink operation, and any other remaining errors. This demonstrates two issues 1) Cannot write file Error Code 2: The system cannot find the file specified. (BackupWrite) 2) Error Code 183: Cannot create a file when that file already exists.

Hi David, Configured as you mention, and prior with the other tweaks I had in the first place, Im getting the same results, which is "FSUTIL utility requires a Local NTFS Volume", and mapping it. I then went to contig, `contig -n X:\share\sparesefile 0`, as well as a few other size. Maybe im using it wrong, but some testing on contig has only "Access is denied" when I try
