Samba Problem

[wowdar]

I installed Mandriva 2007.1 on my PC. I added in rc.local the line "/sbin/modeprobe usbnet" and when I type lsmod there is usbnet.
I done the file ifconfig-usb0
DEVICE=usb0
BOOTPROTO=static
IPADDR=192.168.129.200
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=192.168.129.0
BROADCAST=192.168.129.255
ONBOOT=yes
METRIC=10
MII_NOT_SUPPORTED=no
PEERDNS=yes
 I type in console:
[root@localhost dario]# ifconfig usb0 192.168.129.200 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
 Now I can ping the zaurus at 192.168.129.201

In the Mandriva KDE browser I type "smb://zaurus" and I can see the home directory. I double click on home and I can see the two directory:
CF_Card and Main_Memory.
Now if i double clik on these directory I recieve a window error with this message:
"Tempo scaduto sul server zaurus" (Timeout on zaurus server)

This is my zaurus smb.conf
[global]                  
# workgroup is either a domain name or a workgroup name
   workgroup = WORKGROUP
   log file = /dev/null
#
# encrypt passwords is required for Win98, NT and Windows 2000
#
   encrypt passwords = yes

   coding system = utf8
   client code page = 932
   force create mode = 0755
   strict sync = yes
   sync always = yes

   interfaces = usbd0
#   wins support = yes
   bind interfaces only = yes
[system]                     
   comment = System Folder
   path = /root/samba
   read only = no
   browseable = no
   guest ok = yes
   force user = root
[home]                     
   comment = for User Data
   path = /home/samba
   short preserve case = no
   read only = no      
   guest ok = yes
   force user = zaurus

How can I do to resovel this problem?

you might want to check that Cf_card and Main_Mem are not symlinks to a dir hireachy that is outside of the export

ie if you are in /home/user you cant symlink to /home

its the only thing i can think off without looking into it too deaply

In home  of the zaurus I have this directory /home/samba/
in this directory I have the links to this directory:
.root        link to /
CF_Card   link to /mnt/cf
Main_Memory  link to /home/zaurus/Documents
SD_Card   link to /mnt/card

I can navigate in smb://zaurus/home but if i click in .root, CF_Card, Main_Memory or SD_CArd i recieve an error

[Da_Blitz]

yep, sounds like i nailed it on the head


i will try and explain it again now that my head is clear, samab dosent resolve symlinks that are under a diffrent tree

/mnt/cf dosent reside under the /home/samba tree, so as a security mesure it will not allow you to go there, otherwise i could breach the security of any samab server by creating a symlink to /

if the cf card is mounteed at /home /samba/mnt/cf then it will work but not if its /mnt/cf as /mnt/cf dosent reside under /home/samba

hope that clears things up, same applies to nfs servers

Excuse to me baut I'am not expert.
Why when I connect the Zaurus with Windows XP all works?
Why In Mandriva 2006 with same configuration all works?
Tanks a lot

To be honest i am not sure, it shouldnt work under windows ethier

about the only thing i can recomend is to update to the latest version of samba

ethier that or its mindarva and the KIO or gnome VFS thats  broken, i have had problems with gnome vfs before when contacting smb servers, so try updating the packages on your machine

I'm trying to navigate with command line. Below the output:

With Windows XP or mandriva 2006   I must wait about 4/5 minutes but I can navigaate in the zaurus.
There is the method for increase the 20000 milliseconds in mandriva 2007?
