Networking / Re: Updated Samba Client
« on: February 03, 2024, 09:13:20 pm »Hey Paul,
Thanks for that update - WINBINDD is now fine again and the lock files are deleted when the server is stopped just like before.
One weird thing I just noticed - when I copy a file to the server (from an OS/2 client - both 4.19) the file name is truncated to 8.3 format. Do you see that? I tried both EA's on and off, but still the same. I know this didn't used to happen, but not sure when it crept in (first noticed in the 20240202 drop).
EDIT: I backlevelled the ndpsmb.dll on the client to the 20240110 version, and now files are copied with the full name. So it's not the server, it's the 20240131 client plugin causing this.
Like Neil, I also don't see shares with the ArcaMapper browser (AN 5.1). Is there something that can be added to smb.conf to allow displaying shares? SMBTREE works fine (once the password is added).
One question - the 4.11 version of smbcl411 came with some binaries of things like net.exe and smbtree.exe etc. that were considerably smaller than the ones that come with the server. Is it OK to replace the old ones on the client with the new ones from the server package?
I'll try take these in order:
1) truncation of files names - I'm not seeing this with:
31/01/24 17:50 50,526 124 ndpsmb.dll
md5sum: fbdf044abee62c4fa6020f04a041695b *ndpsmb.dll
Tested against linux and OS/2 servers - and copying from command line and via WPS.
2) the older client had net.exe and others built using smbcl4xx.dll (hence they were smaller) - there's no harm dropping in the larger ones
3) I need to do some testing with arcamapper against OS/2 and unix hosts. My test machines are still AOS 5.0 though, will need to spin up a 5.1 VM.
