windows servr 2008 share & Fedora 13

[xaltednet]

Hi Guys

Windows sever 2008 has done something different to their file sharing. This is not an issue with 2003 server, xp, or any linux samba share

Issue: Cannot copy file to windows server 2008 share

I can however, delete files, rename files, etc... which will indicate that there is not an issue with write permissions.

I am accessing the file via dolphin KDE

Anyone experience this? PLEASE HELP!

Is this part of an AD domain? Is the linux box part of the domain and authenticating?

[xaltednet]

No the linux box is not part of the AD. It is within an AD environment though

but my samba domain credentials is set up to use windows username & password with domain

If it is authenticating properly it sounds as though you might have read and change permissions but not create permissions.. I would check those..

I have not gotten into researching 2008 vs samba yet but that is a project I have coming up.. From what I have read though, is that there are some issues between samba and 2008 AD.

Example, windows 2007 was not authenticating to ldap properly to some items iee. squid.. I had to drop the security on the 2007 box through the local group policy of the workstation.

I am under the impression that the samba team is working through permission issues that pertain to windows 2008 server. Check to see if samba is most recent version..

I have tried everything with the permissions and no luck at all. Also to clarify, this works fine from a windows machine. Also I am running fedora 13 and have installed all samba packages and did a 'yum update'

What is puzzling me is that
1. I can delete files
2. I can right click->new->text file
3. I can rename files
4. I just CAN'T copy or move files to the location, it creates the file but only copies 32KB or less of the file and then gives me an error (unable to copy)

i heard there is issues with domain but from what I read, this is to do with joining the domain. In this case:

If my user is: somebody
and my domain is: SOMEDOMAIN
server IP: 10.0.0.1
share: fileserver

then I am accessing the share via dolphin:
smb://SOMEDOMAIN%5Csomebody@10.0.0.1/fileserver/

I have tried using a mount command but that fails.. and my samba mounting skills is limited, although I have done my googling and tried all the major solutions.

i am able to use smbclient to copy files... so maybe this is a dolphin issue?

Has anyone experienced this issue before? Help
