[Samba] Wrong results in dir listing with wildcard

[Guy Rouillier]

My Samba server is a new install of Ubuntu 10.4 x86 with Samba 3.4.7. 
Samba is configured as standalone, and shares only a single directory 
/data for backup purposes.

I stumbled across this issue while trying to get my original problem 
fixed (which I did, thanks to this helpful list.)  Run the following in 
a temporary directory:

echo abc > ActivePerl-5.10.1.1007-MSWin32-x86-291969.msi
echo abc > ActivePython-2.6.5.12-win32-x86.msi
echo abc > ActiveTcl8.6.0.0b2.291226-win32-ix86-threaded.exe
echo abc > authenclientcp.bat
echo abc > authencp.bat
echo abc > authenejbcp.bat

I put this into a batch file.  By trial and error, I discovered that the 
results are the same if you (1) just run from a shell script on the 
Samba server, or (2) run it on Windows and copy the results to the Samba 
server.

With those files in place, from a Windows box, I get the following 
results from issuing directory listings with a wildcard:

N:\temp>dir ac*
  Volume in drive N is data
  Volume Serial Number is 0160-027E

  Directory of N:\temp

06/10/2010  03:33 PM                 6 authenejbcp.bat

  Directory of N:\temp

06/10/2010  03:33 PM                 6 authencp.bat
06/10/2010  03:33 PM                 6 authenclientcp.bat
                3 File(s)             18 bytes
                0 Dir(s)  533,019,484,160 bytes free

Notice that authenejbcp.bat is included in both listings.  If someone 
else can confirm they are seeing the same thing, I'll file a bug report. 
  Thanks.
