[Bug 561485] Re: Mounting CIFS folder i can only have READ ONLY access

[launchpad99]

Here are more infos:


What version of samba packages are used ?

dpkg-query -W -f='${Package} ${Version} ${Source} ${Status}\n' | grep samba
libsmbclient 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
libwbclient0 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
samba-common 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
samba-common-bin 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
smbclient 2:3.4.7~dfsg-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed

How is the remote share accessed from the Ubuntu system?

- cifs filesystem mount (from /etc/fstab or a mount command)  and then
- nautilus (or other GUI client)
___________________________________________________________________________

smbclient //remote_system/share_name
It works!

smbclient //Server/Share 
Enter domain/user's password: 
Domain=[DOMAIN] OS=[Windows Server 2003 R2 3790 Service Pack 2] Server=[Windows Server 2003 R2 5.2]
smb: \> 

Moreover i can also remove  (rm) files from the shell, it means it is not "read only"
__________________________________________________________________________

If a cifs mount is used:

mount -t cifs -o rw,username=domainuser,password=password,iocharset=utf8
//Server/Share /home/DOMAIN/User/mountpoint

__________________________________________________________________________

What is the remote server ?

smbclient -L //Server

Domain=[DOMAIN] OS=[Windows Server 2003 R2 3790 Service Pack 2] Server=[Windows Server 2003 R2 5.2]
And then a list of the sharenames, server and workgroups.
__________________________________________________________________________

Is it a regression ?

Did this use to work properly with a previous release ?

YES! In ubuntu 8.04 it all worked with samba  3.2.3
