Antw: Re: Location of atalk directories (SuSE / LSB)

>>> Thomas Schierle <ts <at> visual-s.de> 31.10.2001 01:46:28 >>>
For Suse 7.1/7.2, for me the Netatalk installation always went to the
expected location (see above). I'm compiling with --enable-fhs most of the
time, but even without, I have never seen Netatalk installing
right to /.

Andre, could you please provide more details (SuSE release yadda yadda)?

I did mean /bin /etc etc., sorry for my missleading post.

André.

Re: Olaf and SuSE

Hi,

well I'm not Olaf, but I am working for SuSE, too. Currently I am working for
customer with a large netatalk installation and try to help him to fix some
problems with netatalk. Main issues are/were:

- Network Trash Folder and shared volumes (solved in the current CVS)
- persistent DID (current status of CNID-DB looks quite good, we are planning
  some stress tests with a large number of clients and LanTest)
- deleting wrong files/directories which have the same case-insensitive name
  (I have posted some preliminary patches to the list, but got no reponse so
  far)

I would like to support the development of netatalk as much as I can,  but
please understand that I am currently also working on a other project with
a higher priority and my responses may come a bit late.

bye,
Sumit

transient permissions problem

Hi,

We have a Redhat Linux 7.2 box acting as a repository for several build
machines. The repository is shared to the Macos 9 machines via netatalk pre8.

The build machines copy most their files to the repository with the exception of
a particular file which gets created or, if already there, gets read, truncated
then data written back in. Every so often this latter process fails with a
permissions problem when a Macos 9 build machine does this operation. However,
if I try doing the same read,truncate, write-back to the same file later from a
Macos 9 box, it works. The permissions are now OK. Does netatalk cache
permissions? And if so, where?

Alternatively, could it be a configuration problem? I've set netatalk to create
the files with a creator of SimpleText but the program that does the copying
uses MPW. Could this be the explanation? And why?

The same files are on a partition shared via Samba to PC boxes, which can leave
the file's permissions with the execute bit set when looked at from the linux
repository (this is from a Samba configuration issue). However, a stat (using a
perl program) from either NT or Macos on the problem file gives the permissions
as rw-rw-rw.

TIA

Hmm, what does this mean?

Something might have gone wrong in cnid_add.  Do you have any other

BTW, this is Red Hat 7.1 and compiled with

./configure --prefix=/usr --with-config-dir=/etc/atalk

--with-msg-dir=/etc/atalk/msg --enable-lastdid --enable-redhat

--with-db3=/etc/atalk/db3 --enable-cnid-db --disable-admin-group

BTW, another question.  --with-db3=/etc/atalk/db3  Should this be a dir
path or a zero-byte file?

You have so many problems.  Where to begin....first CNID DB and last DID
are mutually exclusive.  Pick one. Secondly, it looks like you don't have
permission to create a .AppleDB directory in your share.  That needs to be
corrected if you plan on using CNID DB.  Thirdly, you don't need to
configure with PAM _and_ shadow.  Again. pick one.

Would it be inappropriate or too hard to do sanity checking with the
configure options?

It could probably be done.  Any volunteers?

Sumit:

Can you post your patches do the devel list so we can take a look at it?
If it looks good, I see no reason it cannot be commited.

Also, please keep us posted on your LanTest results.

Thanks.
