Installing shared Windoze executables on a Samba share
Hi,
I've got a Samba server here that runs great! I've got an NT machine on
my laptop and I can interface with the Samba server directly in any way
I want, except for one thing:
When I try to install a program (Visio) as a network shared app, the
installation always tells me "I've determined that the target drive
doesn't support long file names" after I choose to install to the Samba
share. This is obviously ubll, but how do I convince the install?
I've tried fiddling around with "mangled names", "preserve case", "short
preserve case", etc. (I've read the manpage and looked in the
/usr/doc/examples directory for some clues ...)
And yes, I know this should be posted to a Samba list :) I'll do that
once I subscribe to it.
TNX (and the Samba package is great!)
