If I move or copy some gif or jpg files to the samba server from the win2k server I get the same corrupt files with the same file sizes along with the original graphic which is not corrupt. If I delete the corrupt files and copy the original files back to the win2kserver they are fine from that point on you can move them back and fourth between the servers and there aren't any corrupt files. So my best guess is that there is some kind of file tagging along with the image files that only samba/linux can see and once you delete the files they are gone and it doesn't affect the image file. Please help there are 2 to 4 corrupt files for every good file it's a nightmare fallowing after the graphics artist and deleting the corrupt files. -------------- next part -------------- HTML attachment scrubbed and removed
