Hi Cris,

we had similar Problems using Redhat 7 and XSI 3.0 - but Softimage knows
about this problems. So we upgraded on Redhat 8 and the problems were fixed.
We are using Windows 2K/Windows XP Pro and Irix without having any problems.
Maybe you have wrong settings in your smb.conf.

Sebastian

We are using samba 2.x

Subject: Samba v3 and WinXP issue


Anyone using WinXP as a workstation and a Linux server?  We are having a
very serious and confusing issue regarding file permissions on the Linux
server.  We are running WinXP Pro on our workstations and Linux Red Hat v3
on our server.  This version of Red Hat is running Samba v3 which we
believe is the culprit.  Basically, we have set full r/rw permissions to
everything in this server but for some reason, some applications including
XSI can not save or alter files on this drive.  In XSI, I can create a
project but I can not save scenes to or remove the project.  Examining the
project folder properties in the windows explorer reveals that the project
folders are set to "read only".  This would appear to be the problem except
that I can not set the folder to "not" be "read only" in windows.  Another
strange thing is that the folder properties under Win2K (not XP) do NOT say
"read only".  Photoshop can not save files to this folder either.  We've
tried multiple versions of XSI including EXP which produce the same
results.  We have the folks behind Red Hat looking into it since it does
appear to be something wrong with Red Hat or Samba but we're not sure.  I
basically just wanted to see if anyone else was running a similar config
and if they had the same problems.  Any input would be appreciated.  Thanks.
