Samba, Symlinks and unix extensions Jan 18th 2013, 14:01 Hi all, I have a directory shared with Samba. I am connecting to it with my Mac. In this directory I created a symbolic link to another directory. When I try with the command line, it follows the symlink fine. I added the following to my /etc/samba/smb.conf Code: [global] unix extensions = no [someshare] follow symlinks = yes wide links = yes However, the log says Quote: Share 'someshare' has wide links and unix extensions enabled. These parameters are incompatible. Wide links will be disabled for this share. And when I try to click on the symlink, the Finder thinks it's an alias pointing to a local dir that I can't find on my Mac. Why does samba chose to ignore the unix extensions = no line in the smb.conf file?
