Freebsd (Freenas 8) and robocopy gives Error 5 Time-Stamping Destination File WHy?

Question

I have a NAS running FreeBSD/FreeNas 8.0.4 When I copy files from a windows system to it via SMB/CIFS normally (explorer/copy) it all goes fine. User can create/delete/update files

When i attempt the same thing with Robocopy. I get either of 2 errors, depending on command.

robocopy .\ \\freenas\temp *.* /FFT
2011/06/15 21:17:58 ERROR 5 (0x00000005) Time-Stamping Destination File \\freenas\temp\test.txt
Access is denied.

robocopy .\ \\freenas\temp *.* /COPY:DA
2011/06/15 21:18:08 ERROR 5 (0x00000005) Changing File Attributes \\freenas\temp\
Access is denied.

From the default config, I've set the following in smb.conf

[share]
map archive = yes

[global]
dos filetimes = yes

Any other clues?

Solution 1

Try using /COPY:DT to only copy data and timestamp info, not file attributes. You should probably keep using the /FFT switch too.

Solution 2

I had this problem copying from a Windows Server 2008 R2 machine to a Windows Server 2003 domain controller through an RDP client network share (e.g. \\tsclient\D).

Using an older version of robocopy from the Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit (XP010) worked fine.

For what it's worth, I have the same issue on a CIFS share on FreeNAS 9.1.1. Permissions are rwxrwx--- and my user is member of the group.

Unfortunately I still get the changing file attributes error with both /Z and /ZB and /B.

Still getting timestamp error. I've googled around and it just looks like some samba v timestamp issue??? But it's really hard to pinpoint exactly... Other say just use xcopy (which does work)

How do you convert a copy of the older robocopy version?
