Problem when mounting in a samba-share

[shajianrui]

For example, I have a test.tar which has a structure below. [root@localhost home]# tar -tvf test.tar drwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2019-01-06 16:54 testd1/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2019-01-06 16:54 testd1/testd11/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2019-01-06 16:53 testd2/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2019-01-06 16:53 testd3/ -rw-r--r-- root/root 58 2019-01-06 22:47 testf1 -rw-r--r-- root/root 73 2019-01-06 16:54 testf2

I mount this tar at /srv/sambadir/tarmount with command below: archivemount /home/test.tar /srv/sharedir/tarmount -o allow_other The directory 'tarmount' and its content is okay.

Then I set a samba shared at /srv/sharedir. [root@localhost home]# cat /etc/samba/smb.conf [global] workgroup = SAMBA security = use passdb backend = tdbsam map to guest = Bad User [TESTINNERMOUNT] comment = inner mount path = /srv/sambadir readonly = yes guest ok = no

When I try to connect to the share files, I find that the directory 'tarmount' becomes a file with size 0. I have tried it on Windows, Ubuntu GUI, smbclient and 'mount -t cifs', and it behaved in the same way. However, when I umount it, the 'tarmount' turn back to a directory.

Firstly I thought that it might be a problem of fuse so I tried the example 'hello' in both fuse-3.4.1 and fuse-2.9.2 but they turned out to be okay. I also tried the example 'fusexmp' in fuse-2.9.2(Not provided in 3.4.1) and it did well too.

That is why I concern it as a problem of archivemount itself. Please locate this problem and get it fixed, THANKS!!!

Samba Server Environment: CentOS-7-1810. samba-4.8.3 installed from yum. archivemount compiled with libfuse-2.9.2.

Please test latest version from git. Samba requires a hardlink count of at least 2 for directories, so that is what archivemount now (wrongfully) returns. If I had more time I'd rather investigate why the whole world has implemented workarounds for this for years instead of fixing it in Samba...

Thanks for fixing it. It works and the mountpoint shows up as a directory but there is still something wrong.

NOTE:All problem listed below shows up while accessing the samba-share. Accessing the mounted files in local CLI is ok.

The regular files inside the mountpoint dir are not readable. In windows explorer when I try to open the files with notepad.exe it prompts me that cannot find the files. In Ubuntu the files just disappear. If I mount the share with mount -t cifs and try to open the files with vi, It just create new files with their name.

And actually It fails to load the permission setting of those files in Windows. I haven’t checked this under Linux CLI.

There is nothing wrong with the sub-directories.

Should work now, please give it a try.
