Description Klaus Neuschaefer (dead mail address) 2005-03-26 07:20:17 UTC 
WIN98 clients are unable to copy files from a share with "drag & drop".  A
window pops up saying "preparing to copy" and is stuck there.  Network traffic
goes high until the operation is cancelled.  A delete from the share from
Windows also does not work.  Oddly, a copy from the DOS prompt works flawlessly,
and copying to the share also works fine from Windows.  This also seems to
affect running install programs from a share.

This appears to be  problem only for WIN98 clients.

sorry for the same, cleaning up the database to prevent unecessary reopens of bugs.
