[linux-cifs-client] Re: du reports wrong directory sizes on kernel 2.6(.1rc2) and cifs 0.9.4

[Luis Claudio R. Goncalves]

Hi!

I've been trying to reproduce the problem you're facing and had no success
at all. I've tested it with cifs 0.99a, samba 3.0.1 and kernel 2.4.23-benh1
(ibook) and 2.4.22+patches (i386).

Could you please describe your test environment and send me an strace log for
a "ls -l" with smbfs and another one for cifs? I'm quite curious...
