Description Nathan Vonnahme 2005-05-05 16:11:58 UTC
I'm a bit new to samba but I think this is a bug.  Using smbclient 3.0.14a
recently compiled from source on a RedHat 7.3 machine, when I list a directory
on one share, it doesn't show all the files (it lists only the first 36 out of
44 files/dirs).  However, an old version of smbclient I still had lying around,
Version 2.2.8a, lists all the files correctly.

One weird thing is the share I'm connecting to is on an iSeries (was AS/400 ,
runs OS/400 now iOS or something) IFS (Integrated File System) share.  So, it
isn't a typical Windows machine or a typical Samba server.  From what I've seen,
the IFS stuff is pretty archaic, more like NT 4.0 or Win95 workgroup sharing
than anything modern.

If there are any debug flags I could turn on to give you more info I'd be happy
to...  I will paste the good and bad smbclient sessions below.

Comment 3 Tim Sell 2005-09-04 22:00:47 UTC
I was able to reproduce a similar problem when connecting to a Windows 2000 SMB
server, using smbclient version 3.0.12-5-SUSE (ships with SuSE Linux
Professional 9.3).

The test logs below show that I created 2 identical directories: one on a remote
Windows 2000 machine and one on a remote Linux (SuSE SLES9) machine.  Each of
these directories contained exactly 52 files, which were all created in exactly
the same manner (named a..z, aa..zz).
- When I used smbclient to display the directory on the remote Linux machine, it
displayed all 52 files just fine.
- When I used smbclient to display the directory on the remote Windows 2000
machine, it only showed the first 41 files (a..z, aa..oo) of the 52 total files.

Begin test logs....

Please re-test with 3.0.20 - there has been much work in this area for that release.
Thanks,
Jeremy.

Thanks for the quick response!

Yes, I just built the smbclient in 3.0.20, and it works MUCH better.  (The full
directory is listed, even on my test Windows 2000 share.)  I suspect this COULD
have even been fixed as early as 3.0.13, where I found a changelog entry saying
"Numerous smbclient bugs when listing directories".  It's ashame SuSE happened
to pick up 3.0.12 for SUSE Linux Pro 9.3.  Now I just need to figure out how to
get the fixed smbclient 3.0.20 functionality linked in with KDE Konqueror, so I
can navigate file shares using their nifty "smb://" syntax correctly... perhaps
I'll save that adventure for another day.  :-)

(Update for comment #5)

Just FYI, copying in the 3.0.20 versions of libsmbclient.so (as
/usr/lib/libsmbclient.so.0) and smbclient (/usr/bin/smbclient) was all I needed
to get KDE Konqueror working correctly.  (I didn't think it was going to be that
easy, because I couldn't find any rpm dependency between Konqueror and
libsmbclient.so.0.)

report says fixed.
