[Samba] Missing files on Windows client side.

Tue Jun 14 11:54:44 GMT 2005

In a directory with approximately 6000 files, several files are missing on
the Windows side.
If I check the directory on Unix (AIX) they are all there.

As far as I can see there's nothing strange with this files en I can't see
any connection between the missing files.
It looks like it's randomly.

A few examples of missing files:

FAKTREF.10062005.16 (See debug information)
cum1406.csv

The only thing that I can see in the debug is the following line near each
missing file:

get_lanman2_dir_entry: out of space

Can anybody tell me what causes this or how i can fix this problem.

If I use the full UNC path of the missing file from within an application
it is accesable and readable.
Only from windows explorer it's not visible.

Also a mapped drive in a windows command prompt shows the files.

So it's looks like a problem only with windows explorer.

I have the problem on win2k, XP and Windows2003 server clients.

I'm running samba 3.0.14a on AIX 5.2 ML5

Thanks in advance for a reply.
