Sharing files with Linux

Hi there,

I wanna share files with Windows on Linux boxes by SMB.

I can log on Windows Server and list files on it, but whatever I
get/put/mkdir anything, I got an error, NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND.
Defintely, I should have enough permission for it when using Windows
machines.

Any hints for me? Thanks.

Ray

The problem is your Samba configuration. Reasons for the error can be many.
Make sure you have "writable = yes" and "read only = no" in the
configuration, that would be my prime suspect. On Windows, enable auditing
for failed object access to see if there was any. Probably there wasn't, and
the errors are purely client side.

Have a look at the group policies and/or domain policies. Chances are
that your SMB singing configuration between server and client contradict
each other:

"CompConf\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security
Options" and there:

"Microsoft Network Client: Digitally sign communications (always)"
"Microsoft Network Client: Digitally sign communications (if server agrees)"
"Microsoft Network Server: Digitally sign communications (always)"
"Microsoft Network Server: Digitally sign communications (if client
agrees)".

Thanks, "writable=yes" and "read only=no"

Default settings of my DC is enable auditing for both success and fail, and
I didn't see any event in the viewer.

I'm confused.

Hi Florian,

Thank you for your help, but those group policy is there,

On our DCs,
"Microsoft Network Client: Digitally sign communications (always)" -- Not
Defined
"Microsoft Network Client: Digitally sign communications (if server
agrees)" -- Enable
"Microsoft Network Server: Digitally sign communications (always)" -- Not
Defined
"Microsoft Network Server: Digitally sign communications (if client
agrees)" -- Enable

On our member Servers,

"Microsoft Network Client: Digitally sign communications (always)" -- Not
Defined
"Microsoft Network Client: Digitally sign communications (if server
agrees)" -- Not Defined
"Microsoft Network Server: Digitally sign communications (always)" -- Not
Defined
"Microsoft Network Server: Digitally sign communications (if client
agrees)" -- Not Defined

I cannot do anything on any of them. Even I wanna retrieve a file, it said
it's a directory, weird

smb: \Admin\> get AdobeWeb.log
NT_STATUS_FILE_IS_A_DIRECTORY opening remote file \Admin\AdobeWeb.log
smb: \Admin\> mkdir test
mkdir \Admin\test: NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND

Ok, I tested on the other Windows Domain with the same Linux box, everything
is working.

So it looks like something wrong between the linux box with this domain.

Anyway, thanks.

Thanks, guys.

At last I found what's wrong with my domain. I set up DFS on my domain and
all shared folders are mounted to DFS. I don't know why Samba doesn't work
with those folders, if I set up a new sharing without DFS, everything is
working.
