Samba 2.0.2 (and 2.0.0) truncates/fills with NULL bytes

Just in case anyone if worried about the report about
2.0.2 filling a file with null bytes, I've managed to
track down the problem to an NT redirector bug when
a file created by a Mac (ie. has a resource + data fork),
stored on an NTFS partition using the NT Appleshare file
services is copied to a Samba share when "nt smb support"
is set to true.
This is *not* a generic file corruption bug (in fact it's
damn hard to reproduce, even when you're trying to :-).
Cheers,
Jeremy Allison,
Samba Team.
