Previous Storage OS got deleted in order to reinstall the entire system 
again. Previously there was a FreeBSD 10 RELEASE in combination with a 
samba 4.1.X installed ... but not 4.1.7 ß cause I remember there was an 
update for samba on the previous install, which I didnät apply (since I 
knew, I'm any way going to reinstall it ...)

So now, there is currently a FreeBSD 10 RELEASE and a Samba 4.1.7 
installed. Nothing else has changed - at least nothing I know of. The OS 
as well as its software components like Samba gets installed by a script 
which hasn't ben changed.

Yes, it is quite possible - but most of the logs (sent to me by 
logcheck) have umlaute in - I attached the messages in the first mails 
to samba mailing list - as you probably saw already ;)

Here is what I did on the samba share based on ZFS:

1. I restarted samba: service samba_server resatart
2. I created a folder named: "Über böse Länder" on the share 
(/MyShare/Über böse Länder)
3. I created a folder inside "Über böse Länder" and named it "Hallo" on 
the share (/MyShare/Über böse Länder/Hallo)
4. I copied a file "RG150122583321.pdf" from MacOSx machine into 
"/MyShare/Über böse Länder/Hallo" on the sahre
5. I checked my log: cat /var/log/messages

Neither have I - but - there is always a first time, hey ;)

You assumed right ;)

Xen Server does a backup each night and also deletes old virtual machine 
backups lateron. Otherwhise CCTV is being busy on it .. but also just 
writing and deleting after a certain age of the records. That's all 
about the read and write backup jobs the is - also they don't have 
umlaute in theiy paths.
... also a rsync job is there to mirror the storage over to another NAS 
- but that's a readonly job for Storage-01.

Yes, I have. I did exactly the same steps on the UFS2 (softupdates and 
journaled) as on the ZFS share - same mysterious recylce thing occours:

1. I restarted samba: service samba_server resatart
2. I created a folder named: "Über böse Länder" on the share 
(/MyShare/Über böse Länder)
3. I created a folder inside "Über böse Länder" and named it "Hallo" on 
the share (/MyShare/Über böse Länder/Hallo)
4. I copied a file "RG150122583321.pdf" from MacOSx machine into 
"/MyShare/Über böse Länder/Hallo" on the sahre
5. I checked my log: cat /var/log/messages
[...]
recycle: stat for /mnt/UFS-Share/.Trashes/<C3>M-^\ber böse 
Länder/RG150122583321.pdf:AFP_AfpInfo returned No such file or directory
[...]

6. I deleted "/MyShare/Über böse Länder/Hallo/RG150122583321.pdf" - and 
it is deleted corretly
7. I checked logs - and no new log entry with a recycle error occoured
I copied the file "RG150122583321.pdf" from Mac OSx back to where I 
previously deleted it (/MyShare/Über böse Länder/Hallo/RG150122583321.pdf)
8. recylce message appears agsain in /var/log/messages
9. I deleted the folder "/MyShare/Über böse Länder/" which still 
included "Hallo/RG150122583321.pd" and it went well - no new entries 
about recylce in /var/log/messages

My time is being synchronised by ntpd and 4 different ntp servers. cat 
/etc/ntp.conf

driftfile /var/db/ntp.drift
logfile /var/log/ntpd.log

server 0.de.pool.ntp.org minpoll 6 maxpoll 6 prefer
server 1.de.pool.ntp.org minpoll 6 maxpoll 6
server 2.de.pool.ntp.org minpoll 6 maxpoll 6
server 3.de.pool.ntp.org minpoll 6 maxpoll 6
restrict 127.0.0.1
restrict ::1
restrict 10.0.0.0 mask 255.0.0.0 nomodify notrap

I know the test I did now did not show the issue where the user is not 
able to delete files any more. But users keep on complaining about it - 
and just yesterday, I expirienced it my self again. I had to delete them 
manually via rm -r /MyShare/ ... on the samba server side itself.
.. and no - it was not a chmod neither a chown problem ;)
