Package: cifs-utils
Version: 2:6.4-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
A long time back I found that a directory on a cifs mounted file system
(also running Debian, but 32 bit) could be made current directory,
but attempts to access files within it failed.
The filesystem is mounted as:
//192.168.1.104/homes on /mnt/homes type cifs (rw,relatime,vers=1.0,cache=strict,username=root,domain=VICTORIA,uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=192.168.1.104,unix,posixpaths,serverino,mapposix,acl,rsize=1048576,wsize=65536,echo_interval=60,actimeo=1)
and there are 2 directories under /mnt/homes containing commas and an
asterisk in their names:
Ayane,_Kanako_Ito,_CooRie,_Minami_Kuribayashi,_Hiromi_Sato,_nao,_Faylan,_Yozuca*-New_Game
Minami_Kuribayashi,_Miyuki_Hashimoto,_Faylan,_Aki_Misato,_yozuca*,_rino-Super☆Affection
if I do:
ls /mnt/homes/amarsh04/Ayane*Game
ls: reading directory '/mnt/homes/amarsh04/Ayane,_Kanako_Ito,_CooRie,_Minami_Kuribayashi,_Hiromi_Sato,_nao,_Faylan,_Yozuca*-New_Game': Not a directory
If I do:
$ cd /mnt/homes/amarsh04/Ayane*Game
amarsh04 at am64:/mnt/homes/amarsh04/Ayane,_Kanako_Ito,_CooRie,_Minami_Kuribayashi,_Hiromi_Sato,_nao,_Faylan,_Yozuca*-New_Game$ ls
ls: reading directory '.': Not a directory
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
* What was the outcome of this action?
* What outcome did you expect instead?
being able to use file and directory names that include such characters.
