Could you test out the current SAMBA_3_0_RELEASE tree.
We're getting ready to ship 3.0.20 and as far as I know
directory listings and removal is working ok.   The changes
between 3.0.14a and 3.0.20 are pretty substancial though
so I can't point to a specific patch you could apply.




cheers, jerry
