Author Topic: [EN] Creating Samba Share in a Fuse Mount. (was:Allow Symlinks in Samba Share)  (Read 1959 times)

Hello,


I was wondering if any wizards out there know how to configure Symlinks to be allowed and capable of navigating in the share. I found a few tips about:

wide links = yes
unix extensions = no
follow symlinks = yes


But that doesn't seem to achieve the desired results.
Lets share I had a usb drive at /media/Backup
with a Samba share of "Local" at /media/Backup/Local
I'd like there to be a symlink at /media/Backup/Local/Downloads -> /home/user/Downloads
And that samba would be able to navigate through \\Local\Downloads instead of it just showing up as a 0 size file.


Any help would be appreciated, Thanks

I Think I tried to oversimplify the problem.


I now believe the issue is that i'm trying to create a Samba share in a Fuse mount and their seems to be a conflict.


Any advice would be appreciated.
