Is this issue specific to freeBSD, have you tried reproducing on other OS?
No, I didn't try this on other OS.
Dron: can you reproduce this with a recent version of Samba? If not, I will close the bug. The relevant code has changed quite a bit.
Closing bug report, cannot reproduce and reporter hasn't responded to Douglas's request.
