Hello, I seem to be having the same problem as this closed issue http://drupal.org/node/526404 but I am using much more recent versions. I'm not sure if the problem has resurfaced or if it's user error.

In summary, the 'Image attach: Attached images' field in my views always links directly back to the image file.

--Setting the "Link" dropdown to 'Node' or 'Image Node' produces the same link to the actual image file
--Setting the "Link" dropdown to 'No Link' and then checking the views box "Link this field to its node" produces no link at all
--Setting the "Output this field as a link" option and using replacement patterns produces the same link back to the image file.
--Setting the "Output this field as a link" option to an external URL such as www.espn.com produces a link back to the image file.
--Using a "Global: Custom text" field with Text set as "[image_attach_images]" and "Output this field as a link" set to any thing produces the same image linking back to the image file.

I'm using
Drupal 6.17
Image Attach 6.x-1.0-beta5
Views 6.x-2.11

Sorry for the delay. I uploaded and updated the image module to version 6.x-1.x-dev. I'm stilll getting the same issue. No matter what I try inside my view, the image_attach field always links back to the actual uploaded file and neither of the actual parent nodes.

I only updated the Image module. I'm still running the same versions of Drupal and Views as above.

You're going to have to go in and debug that field handler, because it's all working fine at my end and I can't reproduce this at all.

This module's Views support is not compatible with Views 3.

Hey castle9mm, did you ever solve this problem? I'm having the same issue, trying to get "Output this field as a link" to link to an external URL (from attached image). This has been driving me mad recently.
