[Samba] Repeating ".." directory listing on NT4 client from Fedora FC4 samba stock install
Upgraded with a fresh install from FC2 to Fedora FC4 from cdroms. The samba is
samba-3.0.14a. The /home/public samba share under FC2 worked fine. The FC4
/home/public directory will repeatedly list ".." in the directory
listing for NT4 clients. This does not happen on W2K or XP. The directory looks
like this
..
testfile.txt
DIR1\
\..
\testfile2.txt
\testfile3.txt
\DIR2\
\..
(if selected repeats whole root shared directory down)
The ".." repeats. If it is selected it repeats the whole root
directory down.
I have changed various hide Yes/No and even tried veto /../ but can not remove
this behavior. I know FC2 (samba 3.0.5) did not have this problem. Is there a
setting I can change that disables this. I have searched and could not come up
with a decent description of the problem. In the mean time I have loaded another
FC4 and upgraded samba to 3.0.21a and this problem does not appear on the
upgraded samba. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Yes I got the latest samba working fine now. I finally found a reference to the problem in the release notes for samba. Thanks for the reply!
