Hi,
I've the folloing setup:
2 Machines running w2k with the latest patches,
1 Linux machine running samba 3.0.5
If have on local drive, one mount from w2k to w2k and one from samba to w2k.
If i now do
mkdir a
mkdir b
mkdir z
mkdir c
on all of them, I get different Results from a "dir" or "tree" command.
In case of the local drive or the mount from w2k to w2k the newly
created directories are listed sorted, like
E:\test>tree /A
E:.
+---a
+---b
+---c
\---z
However, in the case of the samba mount they're sorted in the order of
creation (a,b,z,c).
Is there any way to get the same behavour (sorting alphabetically) from
samba too? My problem is that for instance the output of a tree command
of samba share is rather useless since its not sorted in a way I can
lookup fast ;)
kind regards Philip
