Bug#482083: CIFS module will create symlinks, but not delete them

[Ian Cameron <I.A.Cameron@open.ac.uk>]

Package: linux-image-2.6.24-1-686
Version: 2.6.24-6

I have a share mounted via a Samba server with Unix extensions enabled.  The 
share is mounted with the noperm option in /etc/fstab.

I can create a link, e.g. 'ln -s tmp x' and see that x is indeed a symbolic 
link to tmp.  If I then attempt to 'rm x', rm will return me to the shell 
prompt with no error, but x still exists on the server.  This problem is with 
version 1.52 of the CIFS module.

I have now reverted back to using package linux-image-2.6.22-3-686, version 
2.6.22-6.lenny1 and CIFS version 1.49.  This works correctly.

I am using Debian testing.
