10.7.4 has killed my SMB Shares

I updated a server to 10.7.4 this weekend based on the release notes:
- Address an issue that may prevent files from being saved to an SMB server.
Instead, now my Windows users can't connect at all.
I've manually restarted the SMB service
- sudo launchctl unload -F /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.smbd.plist
- sudo launchctl load -F /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.smbd.plist
I've removed all my shares and recreated them.
I've restarted the server.
I've gone to Storage in Server.app and propagated the permissions on folders.
So far, none of the previous fixes I've used in the past have worked.
Additionally, my local Administrator can see all the shares, but my Open Directory Users cannot.
Anyone else have this problem or fix it yet?

Solution confirmed once again.  Stopped the SMB service, removed SMB from individual shares, started SMB service, then added the option back to the individual shares.  I was testing primarily from a Windows 7 client where the local Windows login does not match the Open Directory login being used to access the SMB share on my Lion server. 
Once I knew I had some working SMB shares, I tested some different username formats, since I originally suspected that I was using the wrong format:
These formats did not work:
OD_DOMAIN\ODUsername
OD_HOSTNAME\ODUsername
ODUsername@OD_DOMAIN
ODUsername@OD_IPADDRESS
ODUsername@OD_HOSTNAME
The only formats that worked for me were:
OD_IPADDRESS\ODUsername
ODUsername 
I find it strange that plain old ODUsername works, as this should pass the local machine name by default, thus my input would be changed to LOCALHOSTNAME\ODUsername.  My Windows hostname does not match up with OD, so this shouldn't technically work...
As a control in my testing, I did not change the SMB sharing option from some of my shares, then tested these after the smb restart.  Directories where I toggled the status off and back on again were working, while these "control" directories produce the following error when access is attempted (I tested from a Win7 machine).  This error is produced before the authentication dialogue is presented:
\\IPADDRESS\Share
A device attached to the system is not functioning.
However, I when I applied this fix to all directories, this error is gone.  I just found it strange that it was not revealed until I restarted the SMB service.
I'll have to test further to find out whether this issue is resolved permanently, or if it will come back at some point.

  • Trying to access SMB share, can read but not write, I use the domain account to autenticate and domain account has access to the share. its a samba domain and im a Windows Admin by trade.

    I have two  I Mac's Intel i7 models.
    I have some problems getting them to write files to SMB shares.
    The domain user account I use when requested to enter when i first try to connect to the share seems to go though without a problem and it presents me with a list of mounts (shares) I select one and the folder opens, I can read files and copy them but I cant write to any of the folders.
    I have also mounted the network locatiosn to a folder from the terminal while also specifying a user name and password to use but this also doesnt allow the specified user account to write data to the share.
    I have confirmed the user account can write to the share by having the user do so from a windows box.
    any help from any of you mac guys would be great!!!!
    Im a windows fan boy / Windows Server based Network Administrator and am slowly becomming a fan of your macs (mainly due to the Unix terminal access letting me realise there is more control to be had than most haters would lead you to believe).
    Peace Out

    I should add that I originally formatted the problematic drive for FAT32 from the Mac, but then the WinXP computer couldn't see the drive when I plugged it in directly via USB. That's why I went with Seagate's utility to format it.

  • Creating a folder on an SMB share using a Mac

    Hi everyone,
    This is more of a question than a problem I'm trying to solve, really. Though the answer might help me better explain the issue to our security team.
    Our environment has multiple Windows file servers, both 2003 and 2008. If one of these SMB shares is accessed from a Mac and the user creates a folder, will the ACLs on the share that are set to cascade actually cascade to this newly created folder? We've had issues in the past where ACLs that are supposedly set to cascade on a shared folder are not present on sub-folders created from Macs.
    Next question: if the share resides on a netapp device, do the same rules apply? The Macs are still connecting to these shared folders using the SMB protocol.
    All Macs are bound to our 2008 AD domain and use network accounts with local homefolders. The issue seems to happen when one or both of the following things happen:
    1. A Mac user copies/creates a folder on a Netapp share and for some reason it doesn’t inherit rights correctly
    2. We move the folder from one share on an actual Windows server to the Netapp and it doesn’t take permissions correctly.
    Please let me know if you need any other information.

    Let's put it this way: I'm asking on a Mac site because the people on non-windows support sites are WAAAAY more interested in talking about problems and solutions involving things other than Windows.
    I'm fairly certain that the windows servers ARE respecting their own inheritance rules, barring any major bugs and the like which someone may know about...
    The isue isn't with Macs moving shares to a netapp, it's with a share being moved to a NetApp that has folders created by a Mac. Talking with our security team further, it seems the problem may be limited to shares resident on a NetApp or moved from a Windows server to a NetApp.
    I was primarily asking to see if anyone knew of any issues with these particular situations or had experienced something similar and had dug into it any deeper with F5 (NetApp vendor).

  • Unable to mount SMB shares under Mac OS 10.6.5

    Help -
    *I can no longer mount any shares from my Seagate BlackArmor NAS-110*. I bought the device (a 1TB network drive with CIFS (aka SMB), NFS, and FTP capabilities (no AFP connectivity)) in June of 2010, and it was working fine until appx (18 Nov, 2010). My computer - MacPro 2x2.26GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon (early 2009) with 12GB of 1066MHz DDR3 RAM and Mac OS 10.6.5. My home network is running on Apple's TimeCapsule router (version 7.4.2).
    Note: Problems began after installation of recent updates:
    11/10/2010 - Mac OS 10.6.5
    11/12/2010 - iTunes 10.1
    11/13/2010 - iLife '11
    11/13/2010 - iPhoto 9.1
    11/18/2010 - Safari 5.0.3
    I'm not sure which, if any, of these updates may have intrudced new code which impacted my ability to mount SMB/CIFS shares, or whether this problem is isolated to the NAS-110 (actually, reading numerous posts about connectivity issues (during/over the last month or so) shows similar issues with other external drives, servers, NAS devices). The issues may not have materialized until I rebooted the NAS or the Mac. FYI: The only firewall I'm using is the Mac's built in firewall, and I've got File Sharing (AFP, SMB) set to Allow Incoming.
    What happens? I can't mount the SMB shares. I can see the device in my finder. It shows up as "BA-22B9C2", and I can see the sharepoint folders (in Finder): Download, Public, and wiki. When I attempt to SMB mount the shares (by any of the following methods: Double-Click in Finder, use 'Go->Connect to Server' or using the 'BlackArmor Discovery' application) The share/folder icon does not appear on my desktop. It creates a mount-point in the /Volumes directory, but no folder appears on the desktop. I can 'cd' into the sharepoint, and I can see that Spotlight has attempted to index the sharepoint (a .Spotlight-V100 directory was created), but I cannot see the 'Our Music, Our Pictures, or Our Videos' folders inside the Public share/directory. Successive attempts to mount a share, using Finder results in additional mount points in the /Volumes directory (Public-1, Public-2, Public-3, etc), but no folder icons on my desktop.
    FYI: The 'Connected servers' setting (under 'Shared') is enabled in my Finder's Prefences (along with Bonjour and Back to My Mac), so connected shares should appear on the desktop.
    Attempts to mount shares using the Connect to Server method (smb://10.0.1.2/Public, smb://admin:[email protected]/Public) also fail. No folder appears on desktop. The password/login authenticates (connecting to server), and a mount point is created in the /Volumes directory, but no folder appears on the desktop.
    Attempts to mount shares using the BlackArmor Discovery application generate similar results. Shares are visible in the tool. I click on the 'Public' share (which has permissions set to 'read, write, execute' for all), then click the 'Mount Share' button. I am presented with an authentication/login dialog. I log in as a Registered user (name: admin password: admin) Once again, a mount point is created in the /Volumes directory, but no folder appears on the desktop.
    Notably, whenever I attempt to mount a share, Spotlight indexes the share, but then it dies on my computer. Spotlight stops indexing my primary drive (where the OS is installed for my Mac). I have to stop the mds process using Activity Monitor. mds restarts automatically, and it starts indexing my primary drive again. While this may not be critical to my troubleshooting efforts, it has caused some considerable consternation on my part.
    I initially (back around the 18th of Nov, 2010) attempted troubleshooting with the assistance of Seagate technicians, but they quickly gave up on the email support, insisted I had to continue over the phone, which costs ~$14.00 per 'incident' and isn't convenient for my schedule.
    I've already attempted to update the firmware on the NAS (from 1000.0361 to 1000.1081), but that won't work. The NAS indicates a firmware update (1000.1081) is available, but it reports: "Firmware is not found". I had a friend try this update using his Windows machine (and my NAS), with the same results. He tried with a a Vista box and a Windows-NT running through emulation. I also tried to manually update. I downloaded the firmware image file "sg1000-1000.1081.img" from the Seagate downloads page, and attempted a manual update on the NAS. That failed with error "Failed to upload new firmware image to system." Once again, my friend tried to perform a manual update to the NAS. He downloaded a new copy of the file (from the Seagate downloads page), and he got the same error.
    The Seagate techs recommended that I update the firmware. I explained my problems updating the firmware, and I have asked the Seagate techs (via email) for a known good copy of the firmware update, but they do not answer my requests for such.
    The Seagate techs recommended that I restore the NAS with a factory reset. That caused plenty of problems, as their is no mac software to recover the factory reset 'key' from the device (need device MAC, and I presume some sort of hashing key stored on the device). So, I had to cart the drive over to my friends house, and have him attempt the restore. After some initial confusion regarding the MAC address, we were able to successfully restore the device to it's factory settings.
    Note: Before attempting the factory reset, my friend attempted to mount the SMB shares (on the NAS), using his Mac running 10.6.5. He encountered the same problems I encountered. When he tried using his Windows-NT (through VMFusionWare emulation) *he WAS able to mount the shares*. O.k. This must be a Mac OS issue, and not a Seagate NAS issue. - Now that the drive has been restored to factory defaults, it's pretty much empty (some folders, but no data). Default admin/admin username/password are in place.
    I'm not sure which, if any of my most recent software updates may have introduced changes to smb/samba, so I tried mounting the device using other services. It's capable of FTP and NFS as well as CIFS/SMB.
    I tried to create an NFS mount. I tried using two different methods (an application called NFS Manager and the 'Connect to Server' method built into the Mac. Both methods failed to establish a nfs mount to the server. No login errors were noted, but no mount points were created in /Volumes, and no folders appeared on the desktop.
    I tried to connect via FTP, that didn't work either (using an my Transmit client). I'm certainly striking out with this drive. My Mac will not mount the shares/folders. I tried FTP (to 10.0.1.2 as admin) using Transmit application (on port 21). Transmit reported "Could not retrieve file listing for “/Public”. Server said: OOPS: Child died Error -162: Port failed". Connectivity protocols of CIFS, NFS and FTP (on port 21) are enabled on the NAS and the /Public share.
    *When I attempt to connect using the Connect to Server method (See Apple's 'Go' menu in the Finder), I met with sucess!* ftp://10.0.1.2/Public connect attempt resulted in two pop ups. One of them said 'connecting', the other said something about "'NetAuthAgent' (I didn't write it down) wants permission to access your confidential keychain data" Presumably, this was the authentication request. I said 'Always allow'. A folder appeared on my desktop and a finder window opened showing the contents of that folder. Unfortunately, the share is 'read only'; even when I attempt to authenticate as a specific user.
    Note: I don't think FTP attempts to index the mounted shares.
    Prior to the factory reset, I was able to connect to the shares using the Seagate's 'Global Access' web based ftp service. Now I cannot connect through the Global Access page.
    Below are 'Console' entries and a listing of my /Volumes directory. These may help resolve the issue. I deleted some entries (those I felt were unrelated to the issue). I left in stuff that's been bothering me.
    _*Can anyone help me reestablish SMB connectivity with my NAS-110?*_

    O.k. Thanks for the clarification. I poked around in my TimeCapsule router's settings (TimeCapsule is an Apple Airport Extreme router with attached hard drive for wireless backup/storage). Unfortunately, it doesn't look like I can disable multicasting with the TimeCapsule. I can change the multicasting 'rate'. Settings are Low, Medium, High. It's currently set to Low.
    I did a few web searches, and found an Apple.com article: <http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3789?viewlocale=en_US> which explained how to disable Bonjour Service Advertisements. I believe this is the same thing as 'Multicasting'. The process is a modification of "/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist", and a restart of the Mac is required afterwards.
    I'm a bit concerned that disabling multicasting will interfere with my AppleTVs and iTunes music sharing, but I may try it next time I'm up for a computer workout. This task will require editing of system preference files, could require multiple restarts, might interfere with my AppleTVs, could interfere with my iTunes file sharing, doesn't have a documented relationship to my problem.
    This is way to difficult for something that should just work. Did you say you had read something about a relationship between this bonjour multicasting and smb connectivity? If it was online could you post the link?
    I'm currently able to connect to the drive using NFS, but I have to manually configure that connection each time I reboot (can't get the 'Disk Utility' configured to do it automatically). While it's working with NFS, it's not my preferred connect method (for various reasons).

  • Copy file from SMB share to Desktop permissions

    I have connected to a SMB share point (Windows Server)and copy a file to my desktop (Mac OS X 10.6.4).
    The file on my desktop shows I have the read and write access, however, everyone has no access.
    I could not get the system administrator to change on the server side. Is it possible to make any changes from my machine to make at lease every has read only access?
    Thanks in advance.

    I downloaded D2KWUtil from the link suggested by you. It has very nice example demo form. But the documentation provided says following
    Using D2KWUTIL in Web Deployed Applications
    The use of this library is not supported with Web deployed applications.
    In a web deployment scenario not all functions within D2KWUTIL will work. Any function that interacts with the User Interface (such as those in the WIN_API_DIALOG package) will fail.
    Any interaction with the O/S by other functions will all be executed on the NT server and will act within, or return information pertinant to, the environment on that machine. For instance GET_COMPUTER_NAME will return the Server’s name, not the name of the computer that the Client browser is running on. Likewise COPY_FILE will copy files in the Forms Server not on the Client.
    Functions such as those in WIN_API_BITOP will continue to work without change.
    so this will not work in web deployed application.
    Any other suggestion?
    Thanks

  • Share one iTunes library on a SMB share between PC & Mac

    Hi,
    Is there anyway I can share one iTunes library and the music files on a SMB share between a PC and a Mac? I assume there would be a problem with how the Mac and PC assign network drives differently would be an issue, or is there a way around this?
    At the moment I'm only sharing the music files on the SMB share but with separately iTunes library on the PC and Mac.

    I have itunes match. its good but its not perfect. it downloads wrong versions of songs. for example it downloads the censored version of many of my songs. plus it doesnt do podcasts, movies, tvshows, books.
    plus it doesnt show my smart playlists in the same track order as on my computer. its good but it has bugs and shortcomings.
    thanks for the suggestion but i'd like to try the way i initially posted about.

  • Using single SMB share with multiple Hyper-V clusters

    Hello,
    I'm trying to find out if I can use a single SMB share with multiple Hyper-V Clusters. Looking at:
    How to Assign SMB 3.0 File Shares to Hyper-V Hosts and Clusters in VMM
    I think it's possible. Since the File Server is going to handle the file locking it shouldn't be a problem.
    Has anyone tried that?
    Thank you in advance!

    Hello,
    I'm not sure that's possible, I get this from this statement:"Assign the share—Assign
    the share to a virtual machine host or cluster."
    Even if it worked I wouldn't do that. Why don't  you just create multiple shares?

  • ITunes freezes when adding music file from smb share

    As title states, if I try to add more than 15/20 files to iTunes, it freezes and there's no turning back.
    All my music is stored on my home-server (running Gentoo/Linux) and I have always used it with success until iTunes 10 came out.
    The only thing I can do is to unmount the remote directory, open iTunes and remove the music.
    I've already tried to upgrade to v10.0.1 but no luck so far.
    Any clue?
    Thank you

    This has gotten to be a real problem for me as well. It freezes for about 40 seconds for each song I add. It even comes up as "not responding" at times in the force quit dialogue box. I rolled back to iTunes 9.2.1 as described here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2603684&tstart=0
    Others have reported this fixing the problem, but it has NOT fixed it for me. I have my media on an SMB share and my library files were on the local hard drive. I tried moving the library files over to the SMB share, but it didn't improve anything.
    I've been using "Activity Monitor" to look at what's going on and there's minimal CPU usage. But I am noticing something odd: the "Reads in" and "Writes out" figures are pretty much the same, which is what I would expect as I'm copying song files from my internal HD to the SMB share. But the "Data read" and "Data written" figures are very different. It's reading over twice as much data as it's writing. Either I'm misunderstanding what I'm looking at or something isn't right here. Anyone with more technical chops care to jump in?
    I'd post a picture, but there doesn't seem to be a way to do this.
    I'm also wondering if there are corrupted plist files or other invisible files that can be deleted and rebuilt? I used "Filebuddy" to unhide the files and found a file in the iTunes folder called "sentinel". Anyone know what that is?

  • Why do I get "Unknown user name or bad password" on Windows 7 when trying to connect to an SMB share on my Mac?

    Before installing the update to 10.7.3 I could connect to an SMB share on my Mac from Windows 7 but I can't any longer. When I try I get the error "Unknown user name or bad password" on the Windows 7 system.
    When I try to connect using the "net use..." command I get the error: "System error 86 has occurred".
    Does anyone know how to resolve this? What really confuses me is that it was working fine until I installed the update to 10.7.3.

    Check the Wins Tab in the Advanced section of Network in system preferences.
    If you don't have the same workgroup name and the correct NetBIOS name showing up in the WINS tab you will get the Bad username or password.
    I know I deal with this everyday.
    There is something wrong with Lion and it does not automatically fill in those entries in the WINS tab.
    What I have to do on every reboot/startup is open System preferences go to Sharing and uncheck File Sharing then recheck it. That will fill in the WINS tab entries.

  • Problems copying files to a SMB share.

    Hello,
    Having some odd issues since moving to 10.6. It appears to be a combination of two problems.
    We are in a PC based Active Directory environment. The Mac is bound to the AD and has a Mobile account configured. The problem is with copying files to the network Home folder.
    On attempting to copy a file to the network drive I received a "The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items" error. This only seems to effect some files. I checked the permissions on both the file I was attempting to copy and the destination folder. I had full read/write access to both.
    I attempted to copy the file with the terminal and got an error that I was unable to copy the extended file attributes of the file as I did not have permission.
    Using the xattr command I could see that the file had the com.apple.TextEncoding attribute. I used the xattr -d command to delete the attribute and I was then able to copy the file with the Finder. Another file I tested that I could not copy had the com.apple.FinderInfo attribute. Deleting this attribute also allowed me to copy the file.
    It seems that any file with extended file attributes in 10.6 cannot be copied to our SMB shares. I have tested this on all of our 10.6 Macs with exactly the same result. 10.5 has not had the same problem.
    Now for the second problem. After copying the file as part of the testing I attempted to copy the same file over and replace the existing file and got the error "The Finder can't complete the operation because some data in "" can't be read or written (Error code -36)". I attempted to this a number of times and found that approx 50% of the time it does copy with no error. Checking the Console gives me the following message for the times it does give an error :
    27/10/09 4:03:27 PM /System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/MacOS/Finder[153] Allocator race detected: transaction is not verified for -101/2 - test7.txt
    Any light that can be shone on this issue would be great. This means for us that OS X 10.6 is fundamentally broken and can't be installed on any machines.

    Just posted on the Entourage Help Blog: Workaround for saving Office 2008 files to SMB servers in Snow Leopard
    http://blog.entourage.mvps.org/2009/12/workaroundfor_saving_office_2008_files_to_smb_servers_insn.html
    According to Craig, a poster on the microsoft.public.mac.office newsgroup:
    Changing the owner of the share to NETWORK SERVICE will solve the problem. I have tested this on a test share I set up during troubleshooting and it works! I have told my MS support rep about the workaround and she was going to spread it around. She mentioned that Apple appears to have a fix in the works but not to expect it to be released until February!

  • Photoshop CS5 not actually saving files to SMB shares

    Since upgrading to OS X 10.6.6 (and still in 10.6.7) Photoshop CS5 will not reliably save documents to SMB shares on my file server. When I "Save As" a new document, Photoshop goes through all the motions of saving the file. It seems to complete successfully. No error messages. The asterix in the documents title bar disappears as if the file saved. If you command-click on the document's title bar icon it will display the file path properly, as if the file was properly saved and exists. If, however, you go to the folder on the server where the document was supposedly saved using the Finder (or on a Windows machine in the Windows Explorer) the file does not exist. It was never actually saved.
    This seems to happen mostly with larger files (over, say, 100MB in size) as oppsed to smaller files. If I change my connection to the server to AFP as opposed to SMB(CIFS) the file saves correctly without any problems.
    Has anybody else ever encountered this problem? I have only noticed this issue since upgrading past OS X 10.6.5.
    Thanks!

    This is the boilerplate text often used in connection to saving to a network (please NOTE the part where it explains that normally, it does work, but that it is impossible to troubleshoot someone else's network remotely, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe):
    If you are opening files over a network or saving them to a network server, please cease and desist immediately in the event you are currently experiencing problems with one or more files. Working across a network is not supported.
    See: 
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/406/kb406793.html
      Copy the CLOSED file from your server to your local hard disk, work on it, save it again to your local hard disk, close it, and copy the closed file back to the server.
         Of course, the fact that Adobe does not support working across a network does not necessarily mean it won't work.   It should.
        Adobe's position is that there are too many variables in a network environment for them to guarantee that everything will work correctly in every network, especially given the fact that if something does not work properly, it's probably the network's fault, and Adobe has no way of troubleshooting your network.
      If you can't work locally, you are on your own, and if something happens, you're on your own. If you must work from a server, make sure your network administrator is a competent professional.
    When problems arise, a lot of valuable work can be lost.

  • Cannot save to SMB shares in Pages

    This issue is actually occurring ONLY in the iWork applications, Pages, Keynote and Numbers.
    User recently upgraded to Mavericks 10.9.1.  Has two SMB shares to smb://servername called "Public" and "Company Name".
    The two locations are available in Finder as typical network shares in the left-hand pane.  You can navigate the Shares, open files, etc. without any issues.
    However, if I create a new file in Pages and type some text into the new file and attempt to save it to "Public" or "Company Name", I'm presented with the following error:
    "Untitled" couldn't be moved because you don't have permission to access "Public".  To view or change permissions, select the item in the Finder and choose File > Get Info.
    When I do this, I see the information as "You have custom permissions" which typically indicates an NTFS or ACL related permissions that OSX can't quite read. 
    This same issue occurs whether i'm in Pages, Keynote or Numbers.
    Troubleshooting:
    1.  Checked and verified permissions were correct on Windows 2003 server hosting the SMB shares;
    2.  Created new file in TextEdit and attempted to save it to "Public" and "Company Name".  File save was successful.
    3.  Created new user on machine and logged in and performed steps above with Pages, Keynote and Numbers.  Ran into the exact same error.
    4.  Disconnected the shares and reconnected to the server using domain administrator account.  Same issues occur regardless ONLY in the iWorks applications.  Permissions are fine for navigating location, opening files and saving in any application outside of iWorks.
    For now, I have the user performing the following steps:
    1. Create new document in Pages, Keynote or Numbers.  Edit the document.  Save it to the local drive in Documents\Need to Save
    2. Within Finder, user goes to Documents\Need to Save and drags the files that need to be on the network to the appropriate location, "Public" or "Company Name". 
    I'm almost thinking I need to remove and reinstall the iWork suite applications.  However, I don't want to perform that step without checking here.
    Any thoughts or ideas are appreciated.  Thank you!

    Peter,
    In working with the client, we did find that we could create new documents in the various iWork '09 applications and save them to the SMB shares without any issues.  However, since 5.0 Pages, for now, is installed, all applications have been created in 5.0.1, which is the current version on the App Store, and therefore, cannot be opened in Pages '09.  When we open Pages '09, we're prompted to upgrade to Pages 5.0.  Therefore, we look to still have the issue in saving to SMB shares through the iWorks applications regardless.  Especially since the client cannot access any of the current documents in iWorks '09 applications as they were created in the newer application.
    Any assistance on this would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!

  • Groups missing inherited permissions from parent folder on SMB share on save

    If i save a file on a lion share where i have access RW over group permissions, the groups missing inherited permissions on SMB share on save.
    File permissions before save:
    user: read/write
    group: read/write
    other: no access
    File permissions after save:
    user2: read/write (it changed to the actual users who has permission on the Group)
    group: no access !!! Why??
    other: no access
    On Mac OS X 10.6 i was able to force the group permission, from the parent folder.
    Everytime i must manualy propagate from the parent folder to fix this !
    Any ideas?

    I have the same problem. What exactly do you mean by add ACL. I have tried to change the permissions to add the inheritance via ACL, with no joy - so any help you can give would be appreciated. Thank you.

  • Slow folder browsing on smb shares

    I'm having big problems browsing a smb share on a Windows 2003 Server share.
    Whenever i change folders in the share it can take up to 1-2 minutes before the new folder content appears.
    I tried lots of things such as editing /etc/smb.conf and also /etc/sysctl.conf without success.
    Anyone have any ideas on what could be wrong?

    Apple has always seemed to give poor performance for remote users compared to an equivalent Windows setup running over the same remote link. I think this is a combination of several things.
    Firstly, the Finder on a Mac gets a lot more information to display a directory listing than Windows Explorer on Windows does. The Finder is of course getting the same file/folder names but in addition can get Finder comments, labels (colours), custom icons, etc. which Windows Explorer would not.
    Secondly, I am convinced that AFP is not as efficient over slow links and/or high latency links as SMB.
    Thirdly, I am also convinced that the Finder is grotesquely inefficient in sending and processing commands and replies, whereas perhaps Windows batches things up. As an ancient example of this anyone else remember the floppy disk shuffle on the original Macs?
    I suspect because Apple have a very fast pipe to the Internet they have not appreciated how bad this can be. They need perhaps to consider getting a WAN link simulator and then they can see the problem and hopefully introduce more optimisation.
    Unfortunately there is not much you can do about any of these things, you could try using SMB on the Mac rather than AFP as this might cause the Finder to not try getting some of the extra information like colour labels. Avoiding using the Finder if possible is the best option, you could help achieve this by keeping shortcuts to files on the Server so you don't have to keep browsing to the folder itself.

  • Mac OS X Mountain Lion randomly disconnects from a Windows SMB share

    First le t me say that I am still trying to diagnose if this is a hardware or software issue.  But I figured I would start here.  I work in a mixed environment with Mac's and PC's and all working together with no issues.  I deployed this Mac about 6 months ago to production.  The person using this Mac recently has been complaining of the Mac disconnecting from a Windows SMB share at random times.  The server is running Windows Server 2008R2 and has been running for 3 years.  I have other Macs on the same network connecting to it with varying operating systems ranging from 10.6 to 10.8.  None of the other Mac's are experiencing this same issue.  So I know it is isolated to this Mac.  I was wondering if there might be something in the software like a setting that needs changed that might be causing this.  Any suggestions are welcome.

    I have renamed my pc and everything is ok with the file sharing SMB. Both my iMac and my pc can share files very easily.
