HP CIFS Server 3.0f Release Notes version A.02.03

Known Problems and Workarounds
The following is a list of known problems and, where possible, the appropriate workarounds for the HP
CIFS Server A.02.03
Problem
Share mode security does not work with POSIX ACLs.
Workaound
Microsoft servers do not support share mode security and Windows NT ACLs. No workaround currently
exists.
Problem
Matching single characters in file names from the DOS prompt on a shared CIFS Server drive using wild
card operations and multi-byte character sets does not always work (for example, using Japanese Shift-JIS
and ???? matches two multi-byte characters instead of four multi-byte characters).
Workaround
Use ?? for each single character. For example, if you are trying to match 4 characters, you must use 8 wild
cards, ????????.
Problem
After changing the domain of HP CIFS Server, the user takes a long time to logon.
Workaround
Delete /var/opt/samba/private/secrets.tdb and the .tdb files in /var/opt/samba/locks to
avoid mixed run-time internal databases before changing the domain of HP CIFS Server.
Problem
Concurrent access of the same file from Windows Terminal Services and UNIX may cause file corruption
even if share mode locking is enabled.
Workaround
Access the file directly from the Windows client instead of through Windows Terminal Services.
Problem

Workaround
Change to the directory where the symlink will reside and create the link using relative path.

Workaround
