[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#415002: profiles not uploaded correctly to the Samba server (3.0.24)

[Tomasz Chmielewski]

Package: samba

Version: 3.0.24-4


Profiles are not uploaded correctly from Windows 2000 SP4 (German 
version) to
the server running Samba 3.0.24, ARM architecture.

When downgraded to 3.0.14a-3sarge4, problem doesn't happen anymore - so 
it looks like it's a regression.

Only files in "SendTo" directory is affected (i.e., C:\Dokumente und
Einstellungen\username\SendTo\) in default user profile (newly created).


By default, this directory contains these files:

3½-Diskette (A).lnk
Desktop (Verknüpfung erstellen).DeskLink
E-Mail-Empfänger.MAPIMail
Eigene Dateien.mydocs

Usually, one file from "SendTo" directory is uploaded correctly, and two 
more
files are created - with the names like prfF4.tmp.
This means, that on a next logon some files are LOST: when user logs on, he
will find files like:

3½-Diskette (A).lnk
prfF4.tmp
prfF5.tmp

in his "SendTo" directory.


Renaming files from "SendTo" directory:

3½-Diskette (A).lnk -> 1.lnk
Desktop (Verknüpfung erstellen).DeskLink -> 2.DeskLink
E-Mail-Empfänger.MAPIMail -> 3.MAPIMail
Eigene Dateien.mydocs -> 4.mydocs

doesn't solve the issue; it still happens.


Other interesting observation is that the issue happens with "log level" 
set to
9 or below. If we set "log level" to 10, it doesn't happen anymore.


Other interesting observation: if we copy "SendTo" to Desktop, these 
files are
uploaded correctly.

Filesystem is mounted with these options:

# mount
/dev/sda2 on / type ext3
(rw,noatime,nodiratime,errors=remount-ro,acl,user_xattr)
