Andrej:

Thanks for your mail.

Here is the output of 'od -c foo.txt.lnk'. The samba-server is here not sun100,
but ultra305.

The od-output doesn't mean anything to me.

I also use domain-security.

It can't be a simple typo, because the explorer catches that.

The same behaviour happened on a win95-client.

Do you use user-mapping ?
