------- Additional Comments From wayned at samba.org  2004-09-17 15:21 -------
This is not a bug, but an all-too-common operator error.  The '*' wildcard
expands into many separate files, so no deletion can occur because no directory
was transferred.  Simply remove the '*' (leaving the trailing slash) and all
will be well.
