A problem has arisen with the way samba handles file creation dates compared to NT/win2k, which prevents xcopy /d from working correctly. On NT/Win2k, files copied from another NT machine using xcopy end up with the modified dates equal to the original modified date of the file, and the created and accessed dates become the date of the xcopy operation. On Samba, files copied from an NT

Right in the middle of a big XCopy from Win2K SP3 to Samba 3.0.8 I get an "Access Denied" kicked back from XCopy and it ends. XCopy is building dirs from scratch on the Samba server - starting for a clean empty share. XFS FS on the server, Debian Sarge. I've heard of odd things with RoboCopy, but what about XCopy doing this? I suppose I will be cranking up the logs... or is there

Hi I had sent a mail about a week ago regarding a xcopy problem I had. I am trying to copy an image of an nt workstation from an unixware 2.1.3 server running samba 1.9.18p8. Initially the client is a dos client, who connects to the unixware server and downloads files using xcopy. My problem after copying a certain number of files xcopy fails with path not found. On further investigation I

I had a simular problem in a single server (unix) environment with PC clients although we were using NFS stack for drive maps. The issue is came down to this: a MS-DOS pathspec cannot exceed 64 characters, with the pathspec looking something like 'server_name:\directory\dir...\...\filename.ext". Your NT and Samba systems are probably selected a SMB protocol like Core Plus or LAN Man 1.0,

hello, has anyone got samba-2.2.5pre1 working with "xcopy /o" ? it doesn't work over here with win2ksrv (as client) and samba-2_2 CVS as server (suse linux 8.0, xfs-acls, kernel 2.4.18). is xcopy /o supposed to work at all? any hint will be greatly appreciated. thanks, guenther -- Guenther Deschner guenther.deschner@suse.de SuSE Linux AG

I'm trying to do some quick backups from a Win2K laptop to a Fedora Core 1 desktop but it ain't working. The backups are just a bunch of xcopy's. Most of them run fine but two fail and I don't understand why. It appears that xcopy is attempting to create directories in both cases. When I run the backup targeting a Win98 desktop there is no problem. Here are two examples of

We use MS DOS 7 ala Win98 SE and the M$ client for DOS to logon to Samba 3.0.13 Debian Stable package from samba.org. Also one other unique thing, we have XCOPY32.EXE copied as XCOPY.EXE thus it is really XCOPY32.EXE we are executing, just as XCOPY.EXE. ;-) Example of failing line of code... echo f|xcopy u:\foo\bar.txt h:\file.txt where U: is the drive mapped to the server and H: is a local RAM

I have Time precision problem between linux samba shares and M$ files I want to use my tux to save files from my M$ PC's. Of course I want to do incrementals copy based on modification date... I mount my samba shares from my Windows Boxs and use tools on the micro$oft boxs. (Xcopy /D or SyncroniX ) The problem is that the modification date on the samba share and on de source file on the M$

Hi All I have a Linksys NSLU2 device which is used to hook USB2 drives upto my network as network attached storage. The Linksys firmware upgrade for this device includes samba 3.0.11 which is a non-starter regarding OS/2 connectivity. There is an alternative firmware based on the Linksys firmware called Unslung from http://www.nslu2-linux.org/ The Unslung firmware allows

Hi all, I'm trying to use xcopy /o to copy files from a W2k file server to a Samba 2.2.7 box (Samba manually compiled with ACLs). I'm coming up with Access Denied, as documented here: http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/samba/2002-June/074548.html I gather that the "force unknown acl users" config option is supposed to fix that, although I haven't had a chance to try it out

Hi I'm trying to keep a windows folder synchronized with a samba share using "xcopy /d" ,but it keeps copying again and again a number of files at random that haven't been modified. With a search over internet, I found that this is a pretty old problem, because I managed to find messages from other users that had the same problem, but unfortunatly no solution. Even upgrating to

Hi Germano, I just found your post regarding Samba and xcopy /d switch at http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2003-October/000699.html. This is also driving me mad. I was interested to know if you ever found a way around this problem ? It only seems to be a problem for me with 2000 and XP workstation. 98 works fine. Regards James

Hi all, I came into a problem with the following situation.

I verifyed this by using "xcopy /O

Hi, I have a very simply batch file that simply copies a 300M file to a SAMBA volume but the job fails if run via the NT scheduler. Manually running the batch file (ie double clicking in the file manager) works fine as does changing the destination to another "real" NT Share. The problems only occurs on SAMBA volumes and not when using another share from another NT. The batch file

Hi all,... ... currently I am trying to get hold of a strange error which is successfully keeping me from sleeping the last week. Basically, I am running a DebianGNU/Linux based machine with samba 3.0.0 as a backup server for an amount of Windows NT4 workstations. There is an old backup "framework" around here, basically a collection of .bat files on the workstations which at

At this point in my lab, the only solid servers I have are Win2000. So I xcopy the distro CDs into a directory that I make available for install via ftp. Well I have had problems copying files from this distro. I had to use the /c option in xcopy to get past the problem files.. A few examples are: The following files in the image directory of disk 1 has 'File creation error - The

Hi, I was hoping someone could help me out or just point me in the correct directions as to what I am doing wrong. I have Samba 2.2.3a installed and configured with winbind for domain authentication using an ext3 file system with ACL support. It is working great! Thanks Samba Team! The problem that I am experiencing is I would like to use an application like "xcopy" to propagate the
