 Hi HP-UX samba experts:
 
Problem: Can not double click pdf file in samba drive. Double click word
file generated error. Have no problem when copy from samba drive to c: drive
 
     I download HP-UX depot samba package (2.2.8a without winbind version
for HP-UX11.00) from
ftp://ftp.oss.eznetsols.org/samba/bin-pkgs/hp/samba-2.2.8a/
<ftp://ftp.oss.eznetsols.org/samba/bin-pkgs/hp/samba-2.2.8a/> . After
install in HP-UX 11.0 J200 machine , from my windows 2000 PC, I can mount
the samba drive . I can copy files to and from the samba drive without
problem . But when I double click pdf files in the samba drive, the
application starts up , but it can not open the pdf file . It gives read
error. For word files with image, when double click it , the word program
will give error: "winword.exe generated an error and will be closed". But
all files copied to c: drive have not problem using double click to open.
Any idea?
 
     The configuration smb.conf file:
workgroup = UNIXNAME
username map = /etc/samba/username.map
hosts equiv = /etc/samba/hosts.equiv
browseable = NO
security = server
password server = windowadserver
preserve case = yes
case sensitive = no
 
[homes]
 volume = Unix Home
 public = NO
 readonly = NO
 
     I have tried samba version samba-2.0.7-2-hppa1.1-hp-hpux11.00.tar.Z
and also the same error.
     But I have an older version of samba (1.9.17p4) that works perfectly
well. I searched the arhive but could not find any document has similar
problem.
 
    Please advise whether this is due to configuration error or else
 
    thank you
