Just to let you know: I've reproduced it. Working on it. Volker
Thank you very much I installed Samba34 with UFS ACLs and this issue is not present, everything seems to be ok. The refresh issue appears on samba35, useing ZFS ACLs NFSv4 Same FreeBSD 8.2 server, Windows Xp and 7 clients One more thing.. Ii saw a difference in how samba and windows are ordering permissions. there is an incompatibility. maybe you can fix this too The permissions on <File name> are incorrectly ordered, which may cause some entries to be ineffective. Press OK to continue and sort the permissions correctly, or Cancel to reset the permissions.
Unfortunately the reproducer I told about on irc was bogus. It was against a machine I had tested lower-level protocols (max protocol = lanman2) against. XP does not do notifies at all against this protocol, so this could not have worked. I tried every single combination I could find, but I did not succeed to reproduce it again. Not sure how to proceed here, sorry.
