[TriLUG] mount cifs problem

[Joseph Mack NA3T]

I have a linux box running as a samba server.

root at routera:/tmp# smbd --version
Version 3.0.23b

I export files from my wrt54g waps (dd-WRT, OpenWrt) to this 
machine for rrdtool processing

To show that the samba server is working OK....

I can mount and write just fine from my linux laptop

laptop:~# mount -t smbfs //192.168.2.254/tmp /mnt -o username=administrator,passwd=""

from my dd-WRT machines

from my OpenWrt kernel-2.4 machines

mount -t cifs //192.168.2.254/tmp /tmp/smbshare/ -o username=administrator,passwd=""

but when I do the same with my OpenWrt kernel-2.6 machines, 
I can write once, but not overwrite the file with another 
copy of the file.

root at wap_133:/etc# mount -t cifs //192.168.2.254/tmp /tmp/smbshare/ -o username=administrator,passwd=""
root at wap_133:/etc# cd /tmp/smbshare/
root at wap_133:/tmp/smbshare# touch foo
root at wap_133:/tmp/smbshare# touch foo
touch: foo: Invalid argument

>From the client, I can rm, and mv foo, but not copy over it.

Anyone know why I can't overwrite the file?

I've tried making the mountpoint (/tmp/smbshare) root.root, 
nobody.nogroup; I've added "noperm" to the mount options, 
without any effect.

Thanks Joe
