Cannot access directories in Samba

Postby darshadow on Tue Jul 03, 2012 3:34 am

G'morning,

I've tried to post a message unto Network but impossible! I've just the possibilities to post here... so!

I need to mount two directories from Windows fileserver:
The first is my personal directory and it's ok but the other is a shared directory with other people.
So, after I've mounted it, I saw the first tree directories but I couldn't do anything :

Code: Select all
$ df
//server01.firm.com/LC_Public  52420060 10278228  42141832  20% /mnt/winP

$ ls -ltr /mnt/winP
total 0
drwx--x--x 2 root root 0 Jul  3 09:28 Blade
drwx--x--x 2 root root 0 Jul  3 09:28 Documents
drwx--x--x 2 root root 0 Jul  3 09:28 Bulk
drwx--x--x 2 root root 0 Jul  3 09:28 ZHTemp
[...]

 $ ls -ltr /mnt/winP/Documents
ls: cannot access /mnt/winP/Documents/: Invalid argument


I've just known that this server is pointing other servers!
Has anyone an Idea?

Best regards,
D

Have you tried to cd into it?

P.S. try to do it with nautilus if possible. I find it much more convenient when doing these mounting work.

Yes, I've trying the cd but it don't work!

With Nautilus I could mount until //server01.firm.com/LC_Public but I couldn't cd or open the Documents directory or other too...
BUT
In windows I could mount all this directories without problem....it's strange!

Thanks for your help,
Best regards,
D

When you log in to the Windows machine in Samba, does the account you log in to have the rights to read the folders?

Yes, I'm logging in Windows Server, then I've can mount any of this folders... with properties -> security of folder, I see that the're a special permissions! I don't see more!
I don't known if there's a linux or windows's problem?

Here's message with smbclient:
Domain=[...] OS=[Windows Server 2003 R2 3790 Service Pack 2] Server=[Windows Server 2003 R2 5.2]
session setup failed: NT_STATUS_UNEXPECTED_NETWORK_ERROR
