Title:
smbd: vfs_shadow_copy2 module fails without "wide links = yes"
Status in “samba” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Description: Ubuntu 11.10
Release: 11.10
samba:
Installed: 2:3.5.11~dfsg-1ubuntu2.1
Candidate: 2:3.5.11~dfsg-1ubuntu2.1
Version table:
*** 2:3.5.11~dfsg-1ubuntu2.1 0
500 http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-updates/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
2:3.5.11~dfsg-1ubuntu2 0

When setting up a share using
vfs object = shadow_copy2
shadow copies don't show on remote computer unless
unix extensions = no
wide links = yes
are added to the global section as well which disable features and
might enable access to paths from anywhere in the system which is a
security issue.
Debugging of the problem has been done in samba mailing list but
