Another possibility is selinux. I just build a CentOS 6 machine. When I tried mapping a drive, I kept getting permission denied. When I got into the /tmp directory, I was able to create files from Windows via Samba and see those files but ones created on the folder either did not show up or were inaccessible. Listing the extended attributes showed that the selinux part of the attributes was different.
Researching showed that there are a number of little selinux flags to set to get samba to work. I went into /etc/selinux/config and turned off selinux to test and rebooted. The problems went away. Now I just have to figure out what to configure, so I can turn selinux back on.

Ok so I built the microserver as a centos box and now I have a strange one
I built a Centos 6.5 box with a 3.6 raid ext4 data drive on it, shared with samba.
Now when I browse these folders on the console I can see the files. when I sftp on the command line from another box I can see these files.
But when I browse via samba or using a gui sftp client quite a lot of these files are missing...
Any ideas? _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
