Hello, I have a vfat drive being shared with smb and whenever I go to create a new folder from any of the clients to that shared drive, it gives me a message that the folder allready exists, but it still does create a new folder, and then i have to rename "new folder" to whatever I want, same goes with copying/moving folders, it says the folder allready exists (when it does not) then asks if i want to overwrite it. It seems like when you send a request to the SMB mounted vfat drive, it creates the folder then gets confused / or forgets it created the folder and checks to see if it exists, and naturally it does (because it just did it) and then prompts if it needs to be overwritten / or states that it allready exists... When I try to create a new folder from my Win2K client, Samba replying: "Unable to create the folder 'New folder (N)' Cannot create a file when that file already exists." On shares located on linux native drive for example /share all working OK. When I create/copy file (not directory) on vfat drive all working OK.
