Using samba 3.6.1 and freeBSD FreeBSD 9 CURRENT. I'm getting some weird access denials between win7 and FreeBSD 9 smb shares. On LAN, I have win7, FreeBSD 9 and FreeBSD 8.0.
I am developing on win7 as I can't install eclipse or netbeans (don't have the time to play games chasing all the compile errors) using the unix servers. I update/modify the files on one server, then save or copy to the other as needed. But once I have the servers set up to work right, the FreeBSD 9 denies access if it crashes and restarts or if it is shut down and restarted.
This happened yesterday and I had to change permissions on the files to be able to connect from Win7. Samba seems to be working fine. But the permissions are set to 0755 for the apache22 and apache22/data folders; the folders under data are set to 0777 so I can save and change stuff on the server. But the access changes even though these settings have not been changed.
Again, today, server went down and restarted; everything worked fine before and now access denied. I'd say this is weird. I have to fiddle the permissions and then it works.
The users and passwords are correctly in sync for both FreeBSD 9 and samba as well as for Win7. No connection problem, just permission tantrums. Any ideas? It's frustrating to be fiddling with this stuff.
TIA
