Hy people,
I have a strage problem here, i have sles8 with samba 2.2, and whe i mount a windows ntfs share on my linux box i dont see all the files that the share has, because if i list the files using ftp or on the proper local machine and i count the files i have 3500, and when i list then on my linux box on the mounted smbfs i only see 2000, sometimes i get 0 files listed, i have tried mounting the share with samba 3.0 in a debian box with exactly the same result... , the thing is if i try moving a file that i cant see i can move it and use it with no probss... :¿.
strange thing?? can someone help me out here?
the windows share is a w2003.
thnX!
Could this be Windows hiding the files? I recall that there is an option to hide certain files in Windows. I would have thought this could hide them from a Samba box. -- ============================================== I am only human, please forgive me if I make a mistake it is not deliberate. ============================================== Xmas may be over but, PLEASE DON'T drink and drive you'll make it to the next one that way.
