Problem deleting a file (CIFS and ACL inside)

[jigeay]

Hi,
server : HP-UX gidtprod B.11.23 U ia64
Samba : Samba version 3.0.14a based HP CIFS Server A.02.02
example :
With this share :
[DEPOTS]
path = /DEPOTS
valid users = gaston lusseaud
write list = gaston lusseaud
force create mode = 0775
force directory mode = 0775

drwxrwxr-x+ 8 root root 1024 Nov 6 16:40 DEPOTS

getacl :
# file: /DEPOTS
# owner: root
# group: root
user::rwx
user:lusseaud:rwx
group::r-x
class:rwx
other:r-x

The problem is : whereas user lusseaud can create a new file via windows into this directory (which is created with the good rights), he can't delete it via windows. I have the "please check that your disk is not full or write protected" message.
i have no locks onto this file.
may anybody help me ?

This is a documented bug in CIFS A.02.02.

Upgrade to the newest release; this bug is fixed in there

OK, thank you.

Sorry for the noob question, but is their anyway to update without reinstalling the whole A.02.03 depot ?

Matthieu,

upgrading really never was a problem.

Just shutdown samba, save your smb.conf file
and install the new package.

Than better check your smb.conf for completness
and fire samba up.

Never had a problem doing this and it takes about 15 minutes.
