Unix extensions in Samba Server

    My Hard- and Software: LE 9.2.3 on Raspberry Pi 4


    Hello everybody,

    I use my Raspberry Pi as a little NAS with a external harddisk connected via USB, sharing the data via Samba.

    As I noticed, the CIFS mount on my client states "nounix" in the mount options:


    Code
    mount | grep /media/data
//192.168.1.3/daten on /media/data type cifs (rw,nosuid,nodev,relatime,vers=3.1.1,cache=strict,username=myusername,uid=1000,forceuid,gid=1000,forcegid,addr=192.168.1.3,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,soft,nounix,serverino,mapposix,rsize=4194304,wsize=4194304,bsize=1048576,echo_interval=60,actimeo=1,x-systemd.automount)

    So I added the line

    Code
    unix extensions = yes

    in the global section of

    Code
    /storage/.config/samba.conf

    but (after rebooting) it didn't change anything.

    Aren't the unix extensions supported by LibreELEC?

    unix extensions should work fine if you grade down max protocol version from 3.0 to 1.0 on the client side. You can select that inside the services menu - chose the smb client register and switch max protocol from smbv3 (or none) to max smbv1.
