I wonder if this is the same problem Matt has fixed for the next
release?

Windown 2000 Professional (builds 2031 and 2072) have problems creating
and renaming directories against 2.0.4b (Solaris 5.7 and Sun OS
4.1.x).

New Folder creates a directory as expected (Unix attributes fine etc.)
but containing a file TESTDIR.TMP.  You cannot rename "New Folder" from
the 2000 desktop (cannot read from source file or disk...), can rename
TESTDIR.TMP but cannot drage & drop anything into "New Folder" (this
folder already contains a file named "New Folder" would you like to
...).
