I have test to copy some files I have on my windows clients some. I have file on the MAC Server that are set in 2008 and thoses files can be write back to windows.
I have try with Mac clients no problem ! What could help is that it seems that only new files have problem to write back.
#OS X SIERRA SMBUP WINDOWS 7#
I have exactly the same problem, I use a mac server leopard 10.5.8 in a multi envirronement with mac clients and windows XP, 2003, Seven and when downloading files for the internet and storing to SMB share of Leopard server no problem,but after that I can't write back files to any kind of windows ! On XP and 2003 it give me the same message than describe the file seems to copy but at the end it fail to save on windows 7 it say that Group Sector are not valid ! Strange, same problem on all windows versions. No message is displayed on the SMB log ( I have set SMB logging to high on the OSX Server box). But whenever we create an SMB share, there is a strange behaviour: files could be uploaded to the server, but once copied, they can't be copied back to windows machines, triggering the error (more or less, as the error text is in spanish): "File operation could not be completed, source file could not be found"įor debugging purposes, we have just created a share, step by step, identify which the problem is:ġ - Create a user from Workgroup manager, no admin capabilities.Ģ - Create a folder under "Shared Items" Folder.Ĥ - Disable AFP, FTP, NFS (leaving just SMB as sharing protocol)ĥ - SMB protocol options: Disable "Allow guest access", Asign permmissions as follows: Owner: RW, Group R, Everyone R.Ħ - We then go to permissions and choose user created at step 1, set him ACL permissions as RW.Īfter that, we reboot our Windows test machine, flushing its dns cache previously. Windows machines are supposed to use the SMB shares with Open Directory Accounts.
The initial set up was done having in mind just the MACs, and they have no issues connecting to the SMB shares. The platform has Windows XP /Windows Vista / OSX computers and as the server has a high capacity NAS it seemed logical to share it using SMB.
