[Samba] Wrong results in dir listing with wildcard

[Tom Reijnders]

Confirmed: (I liked Blake's 7   ;-) )

Samba version Version 3.5.3-1.1-2362-SUSE-CODE11 on openSUSE 11.1 (x86_64)


1. Created the temp files
2. Logged in on Windows XP machine


- dir au* lists the au file plus 1 file that starts with all....!!!

T:\tmp>dir au*
De volumenaam van station T is landata
Het volumenummer is 0AD1-12E6

Map van T:\tmp

28-03-2008  12:42                 4 allinvest_4.5.1i.20080328 1139.sql
10-06-2010  21:55                 4 authenejbcp.bat
10-06-2010  21:55                 4 authenclientcp.bat
10-06-2010  21:55                 4 authencp.bat


- dir ac* lists the exact same files as mentioned below (so including
the authenejbcp.bat)

T:\tmp>dir ac*
De volumenaam van station T is landata
Het volumenummer is 0AD1-12E6

Map van T:\tmp
