samba issues

[MCCALL,DON (HP-USA,ex1)]

Hi Alexander,
That IS pretty crazy.  Do you mean that they do not appear in the explorer
window when you look at the share from
your pc, or that you actually log in as ROOT on your mandrake system and do
an ls on the directories in question, and 
the files are not there under unix?

Good afternoon.
My name is Alexander Moloksher.
recently i've finished few installation of samba file server on Mandrake 7.2
platform.
I have options strict locking = yes, prefered master =yes, local master
=yes, domain master = yes, os level = 33 in smb.conf.
i used default samba packages shiped with mandrake 7.2.
everything was going smoothly, especialy with strict locking = yes options,
that took away anoying socket errors, but...
i found that on all 3 servers i've done files  just GONE !!!, they
disappeared from directories on samba server leaving them empty !!!!!. all
files in share root are still in place but files in subdirectories gone
missing.
This is absolutely crazy.. directories still there but they empty.
All 3 samba servers not connected to internet and not accessable by user
yet. They being tested at the moment.
Please help me out, cause this is must be something wrong with how samba
file system handles subdirectory content.
please find my smb.conf attached to this message.
kindest regards.
Alexander Moloksher.
P.S. i've just installed samba 2.2 alpha 3 and having exactly the same
problem
