I have a RH9 server with samba 3.0.5 on it. I have a nfs mount from an AIX server mounted on this linux server. I shared this nfsmounted filesystem via samba with our windows clients. Our problem is that in a directory with a large amount of files (somewhere between 200 and 2000) the files that are shown via windows are less than the amount of files on the unix and also on the linux servers. So our windows clients cannot trust what they see on their screen. The files have special names with whitespaces in them: SPONSON QQ.model SP_IGES_FILE.model SYM. BUBBLE WINDOW KIN BTO 27.06.03.model smb.conf # Samba config file created using SWAT # from 145.73.180.119 (145.73.180.119) # Date: 2004/07/22 08:04:19 # Global parameters [global] workgroup = WORGRNAME realm = WORKGRNAME.ROOT.AD server string = Samba Server tbv Catia V5 security = ADS password server = WIN2KSERVER username map = /etc/samba/smbusers log level = 1 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 100 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=4096 SO_SNDBUF=4096 preferred master = Yes dns proxy = No wins server = 193.85.180.31 ldap ssl = no idmap uid = 10000-20000 idmap gid = 10000-30000 winbind separator = / winbind enum users = No winbind enum groups = No [TOOLING] comment = path = /SERVERCATDB/TOOLING username = @tool force group = tool read only = No [FLY] comment = path = /SERVERCATDB/FLY username = @fly force group = fly read only = No ....... ....... ....... I saw similar problems on the web, but no solutions. Can someone help us? Best regards, Hans Bol
This is catia, right? Catia has some really nasty stuff in its file names that windows natively does not support. I've got a mapping module somewhere that gets these sane. Please contact me (vl at samba dot org) directly if you want this module, I would have to dig it up somewhere. Volker

Is bug id 1837 related??? In my opinion it is not a catia problem, but more like a codepage problem?
(In reply to comment #3) > Is bug id 1837 related??? > In my opinion it is not a catia problem, but more like a codepage problem? > Hi! I don't think it is codepage related... As You can see I've written in bug id 1837 some examples that I can and cannot see. Tere is an example, which has no special characters, the most unwanted character is the space... Just to say: I've tried with SuSE samba-client and that was all right, everything was listed :(
can you please do a "find ." inside the directory containing the nasty files, redirect the output into a file, gzip that file (that's important so tha the content will stay definetely unchanged!) and mail it to me or attach to this bug?
Created attachment 712 [details] directory listing wich is not displayed correctly on windows
please retest against 3.0.14a and see the notres for large directory support in the 3.0.12 portion of the release notes. If the problem still exists, then feel free to reopen this bug.
sorry for the same, cleaning up the database to prevent unecessary reopens of bugs.
