[Samba] Missing files in directory listings

Hi

A customer of mine has a strange problem with samba 2.2.8a

They have a number of directories with 600 - 800 files in each
directory.

When new files are added to the directories, and they do a directory
listing on their PC's ( Win 2000 pro SP2 and SP3 ), the last 10 files 
are not shown. THis happens both when using "explorer" or doing a `dir`
in an command prom window.

The same thing happens on all their windows clients; but if they connect
to the share with smbclient, and do an ls of the same directory, all
files 
are shown OK.

They do not have anything logged in the smbd or client log files.

Anybody have an idea what could cause this behavier?

In the config file they have:

[global]
    comment = <Comment> - Samba %v
    workgroup = <The work group>

    guest account = nobody
    browseable = yes

    max log size = 500

    locking = yes

    security = share

    socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=8192 SO_RCVBUF=8192
    large readwrite = yes

    os level = 0
    preferred master = no
    domain master = no
    local master = no
    wins support = no
    wins server = 10.100.20.5 10.100.20.3

    preserve case = yes
    short preserve case = yes

    passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
    passwd chat = *ew*password:* %n\n *e-enter*new*password:* %n\n

    load printers = no

    deadtime = 15

    smb passwd file = /nle/.samba/sgiws01/private/smbpasswd
    log file = /nle/.samba/sgiws01/log/log.%m
    lock dir = /nle/.samba/sgiws01/locks
    pid directory = /nle/.samba/sgiws01/locks
    bind interfaces only = yes
    netbios name = sgiws01
    interfaces = 10.105.4.32/0xffffff00 10.105.5.32/0xffffff00 
    10.105.7.32/0xffffff00 10.105.8.32/0xffffff00 10.105.9.32/0xffffff00 
    10.105.10.32/0xffffff00

[morgen]
   comment = <Share comment>
   path = /nle/morgen
   writeable = no
   guest ok = yes

+ more shares
