Hi Suresh, Firstly, thanks for responding. > See options serverino, noserverino and section inode numbers in 'man > mount.cifs' for additional information regarding this error. I've read the man pages and understand that noserverino will break hardlinks, but it doesn't work with or without this option. > Is there a hardlink involved? No. > The samba version you are using seem to be quite old.. Does better POSIX > support/conformance sound like a good enough reason..? I doubt it. The problem I have is that it is working fine for Ubuntu users (which is the vast majority) so they will not want to risk breaking things. Of course that means I cannot currently update my kernel (which they are less concerned about). >> strange thing, is that some of my colleagues run Ubuntu 10.04, which >> uses the 2.6.32 kernel, and they can use the share without problem. > What is the server version in this case? Exactly the same server that I'm connecting to (3.0.28a).
