I am using samba under ubuntu 14.04 and I try to share a folder which includes a symlink to a directory that lies on an external drive. If I access the samba share from other devices (like android phone or windows PC) it does not show the symlink - everything else works fine.I found multiple solution suggestions but nothing worked.Currently I added the following lines in the global section before I restarted samba:follow symlinks = yesunix extensions = nowide links = yesallow insecure wide links = yesHowever it does not change anything. I am aware of the security risks, but in this case it is no problem.Can anyone help here?
