Can confirm the broken behaviour for client 4.20.2-2024.0.0.0, as
delivered by OI Hipster 2024:07:17, and server 4.21.1.-2024.0.0.0 as
delivered by OI Hipster 2025.01.13. Files can be created and removed,
but not overwritten or extended via smbclient:
smb: \> put /tmp/tt t
NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED opening remote file \t
smb: \> rm t
smb: \> put /tmp/tt t
putting file /tmp/tt as \t (2.9 kb/s) (average 0.7 kb/s)
smb: \> reput /tmp/tt t
NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED opening remote file \t
