Bug 200486

Description of problem:

Since FC4 server upgraded to samba 3.0.23a (from 3.0.23) my FC4 client can still
connect (with no errors) and do a directory listing of a samba directory, but
cannot open a file (there are no errors opening the file but I get no data).

The FC4 client was still running 3.0.23, so I upgraded to 3.0.23a but problem is
identical (I also tried rebooting client after upgrade).

A windows-XP machine can see the file contents correctly.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

3.0.23a.


How reproducible:

All files affected.


Steps to Reproduce:

I do the samba mount with this command (it is in rc.d/rc.local):
mount -t cifs -o "guest,uid=darren,gid=darren,dir_mode=0775,file_mode=0664"
//fs/fs /mnt/fs

Then after logging in as darren I do:
  cd /mnt/fs/somewhere
  ls -l

I see files with correct permissions, ownership and dates, e.g:
  -rw-rw-r--  1 darren darren    2826 Jan  9  2005 usb.txt

gedit usb.txt tells me access is denied. oocalc of an xls file tells me data
could not be read.

Curiously, writing still works. E.g. "touch test" works. "vi test" opens it, and
saving works and I see a file of 7 bytes:
  -rw-rw-r--   1 darren darren       7 Jul 28 13:01 test

When I do "vi test" again I see an empty file and "[READ ERRORS]".
 

  
Additional info:

1. Bug 200362 is also a problem with same smbclient version, but unlike there I
have no problems with directory listings. It is only reading file data that fails.

2.Here are is my smb.conf on the server (IP addresses and path obfuscated):
