[Samba] RE: Missing files as seen by Explorer on a client (was Need help on this) **********FIXED******************
I really appreciate all your responses on this.
I might not have fixed it by looking at samba logs but i noticed there was
directory in user unix directory with wildcard * as folder name
once i removed it, samba showed up all the files and directory.
am not sure what would * as folder name caused this behaviour
may be samba was trying to interpret * as something else not sure......
or it was windows exlorer could not understand * and showed up some but not
alll
anyway thanks again

Whoops, I was wrong in the previous message:
it looks like a samba-side problem!
/*******************************************************************
Utility function used to decide if the last component
of a path matches a (possibly wildcarded) entry in a namelist.
********************************************************************/
BOOL is_in_path(char *name, name_compare_entry *namelist)
The functiont looks for name in namelist, and
almost every other list passed in is empty!
This caused it to return false, and probably
not return the name to Windows.
This look sorta un-good... Abdul, what version
samb are you running? Folks, has anyone fixed a
bug on this lately?
