When using cygwin to access a samba share residing on a linux host, I get things like the following:-rw-r--r-- 1 ???????? ???????? 13K Sep 7 2010 foo drwxr-xr-x 1 ???????? ???????? 0 Apr 26 2009 bar/
Logging into the box directly shows this instead:The corresponding uid/gid are 2680/10099.-rw-r--r-- 1 ryanjohn ryangrp 13108 2010-09-07 05:39 foo drwxr-xr-x 2 ryanjohn ryangrp 4 2009-04-26 15:24 bar/
The main annoyance is that everything is read-only, even though I own the files. I remember a long time ago being able to mount a samba share under linux and telling it what uid/gid to use for unrecognized owners, but I can't remember the magic incantation or find it on Google; plus, I'm not sure it would work in cygwin anyway, since the mount utilities are totally different.
Ideas?
Read the manual / help :
$ mkpasswd --help ... -U,--unix userlist additionally print UNIX users when using -l or -L on a UNIX Samba server ...`mkpasswd` and `mkpasswd -l -U0-20000' produce the same output (neither includes the SMB user); the drive is mapped in Windows as z: and I can also access it directly from the cygwin prompt.
same for SAMBA/CIFS, /usr/lib/smb.conf :
guest account = nobody
Just to be clear, that's supposed to be on my cygwin (guest) side? I thought that file controlled the server's behavior... and I don't have admin rights on the server side.
This is not what you asked for but you can also try mounting the samba drive using 'noacl' to turn off the POSIX view.
