Wierd file renaming.

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

Hi james,
I have no idea!  But could you please describe exactly how you are 'saving'
these three files - ie, what program are you running on the NT side that is
creating these 3 files when you do a 'save' operation?

I have configured and started samba (v 2.0.6) on a HP unix server and
configured our NT domain so that I can read/write files to the defined unix
filesystem shares. It appears that everything seems to be working as
designed except... 

When doing a save operation (on the NT system) to the drive mapping to the
unix filesystem I am finding that the names of two particular files are
incorrectly prefixed with the (capatilised) name of the file last
(succesfully) written. 


e.g. contents of unix directory before save in NT (these files originated -
succesfully from NT): 


#ls -lrt 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01           5 Dec 18 09:45 version.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        6204 Dec 18 10:00 general.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        2112 Apr 24 20:32 cm0001.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        2112 Apr 24 20:32 cm0002.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        9372 Apr 24 20:32 cm0003.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01          62 Apr 24 20:32 nd0001.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01          62 Apr 24 20:32 nd0002.FMdat 


After save in NT (I expect, and get, three new files): 


#ls -lrt 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01           5 Dec 18 09:45 version.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        6204 Dec 18 10:00 general.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        2112 Apr 24 20:32 cm0001.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        2112 Apr 24 20:32 cm0002.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        9372 Apr 24 20:32 cm0003.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01          62 Apr 24 20:32 nd0001.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01          62 Apr 24 20:32 nd0002.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        2851 Apr 24 20:33 network.FMnet 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        1008 Apr 24 20:33
NETWORK.FMNETconnect.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01           8 Apr 24 20:33
NETWORK.FMNETconnect.FMcon 


But two of the three new files are incorrectly prefixed. I should see... 


#ls -lrt 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01           5 Dec 18 09:45 version.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        6204 Dec 18 10:00 general.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        2112 Apr 24 20:32 cm0001.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        2112 Apr 24 20:32 cm0002.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        9372 Apr 24 20:32 cm0003.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01          62 Apr 24 20:32 nd0001.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01          62 Apr 24 20:32 nd0002.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        2851 Apr 24 20:33 network.FMnet 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01        1008 Apr 24 20:33 connect.FMdat 
-rwxr--r--   1 jmckenz7   panl01           8 Apr 24 20:33 connect.FMcon 


Any ideas why this is happening? 


Kind regards
