You might try to set the "unix extensions" parameter to yes. Hm, that's the default.
Please check nevertheless with
testparm -s --parameter-name "unix extensions"
to ensure it's not disable on your system.
If I mount it:
mount -t cifs //192.168.1.4/part2 /mnt
and delete a file from it, it leaves a file called e.g. cifs03d8 of the same size as the file I've just deleted. I then unmount the cifs on /mnt, Then I have to telnet to the NAS and delete the cifsxxxx file at the command line. Which is instantaneous. But a pain.
If I use dolphin or konq to access the NAS:
smb:/192.168.1.4/part2
select the file and then hit shift-Supr (I think it's shift-Del on a us keyboard), it deletes it cleanly but takes much longer.
See http://en.openSUSE.org/Bugs/Samba section "Debugging cifs vfs client" and file a bug if you still see this issue.
What is the difference between mounting the cifs share and using the smb:/ protocol in dolphin?
The call to "mount -t cifs ..." uses the Linux kernel cifs client.
While applications like dolphin or konq use libsmbclient.

Hi Lars That was a very informative reply and thanks for that. The output of the command you suggested is: testparm -s --parameter-name "unix extensions" Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf Processing section "[homes]" Processing section "[profiles]" Processing section "[users]" Processing section "[groups]" Processing section "[printers]" Processing section "[print$]" Loaded services file OK. Yes The bug report looks like a daunting process eg: tcpdump -s0 -w cifs-debug.cap 'port 137 || 138 || 139 || 445' tcpdump: listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes sits there until I type ctrl-c 0 packets captured 0 packets received by filter 0 packets dropped by kernel I can mount and unmount fine. Just wondering if this is OK or whether anyone else uses NAS devices as hdmi recorders.
