samba and mount nt-drives - BUG ?

[Morban Michael]

Hello,

i have just tried to mount a windows share from samba with the following
command in the fstab:

//titan/frieda          /mnt/frieda             smbfs
auto,suid,uid=99,gid99,workgroup=pilux,username=pilux,password=****** 0 0

Now that works fine. But if there are more then 75 directories on these
share, guess what happen ?
There are no directories shown for the command "ls -l", ok thats very
strange, but

I tried this script:

---------
#!/usr/bin/perl
$i=1;
while ($i<75)
{
	system ("mkdir $i");
	$i=$i+1;
}
----------

After running this script the "ls" shows this:

[root at pilux test]# ls
1   13  17  20  24  28  31  35  39  42  46  5   53  57  60  64  68  71  8
10  14  18  21  25  29  32  36  4   43  47  50  54  58  61  65  69  72  9
11  15  19  22  26  3   33  37  40  44  48  51  55  59  62  66  7   73
12  16  2   23  27  30  34  38  41  45  49  52  56  6   63  67  70  74
---------

Then i do a "mkdir 75" and the result of "ls" is this:

[root at pilux test]# ls
1   11  13  15  17  19  20  22  24  26  28  3   31  33  35  37  39  40
10  12  14  16  18  2   21  23  25  27  29  30  32  34  36  38  4   41
----------
OK thats a bug ? Then try "mkdir 76" and "ls" shows:

[root at pilux test]# mkdir 76
[root at pilux test]# ls -l | more
total 0
[root at pilux test]# ls
[root at pilux test]#

I cant see any fault on my side, i think this is a bug ?

Now here a my versions:

Linux, Redhat 6.2, Kernel 2.2.14-5

[root at pilux test]# mount --version
mount: mount-2.10f

smbmount: 2.0.6

[root at pilux test]# smbd -V
Version 2.0.6


I hope you can help me, i cant find anything about this in the newsgroups or
mailinglists.

Greetings

Michael Morban
