I am trying to copy some digital images to a directory on my Redhat 7.3
Samba 2.2.3a-6 server and am getting extra files in the directory. I
have included my SMB.Conf file contents below in case that is relevant.
The files being copied reside on a Windows 2000 workstation and were
created by Jasc Image robot. These files would have been accessed by
both a Windows 2000 machine as well as a Windows XP machine. I should
point out that the samba share, exists and has permissions = 777. The
files I am trying to copy are all named like the following example
"LK00000005373.png" without the quotes. They are large, 20MB or more,
and there are a lot of them. I am using Xcopy to copy from the Windows
2000 machine to the samba share. When I go to the Linux box, log in and
do a directory there are three versions of each file. they look like the
following.
-rwxr--r--    1 Ttt      Ttt      28778288 Nov 14 20:40
LK00000005373.png
-rwxr--r--    1 Ttt      Ttt             0 Nov 14 20:40
LK00000005373.png:{4c8cc155-6c1e-11d1-8e41-00c04fb9386d}:$DATA
-rwxr--r--    1 Ttt      Ttt          6340 Nov 14 20:40
LK00000005373.png:?Q30lsldxJoudresxAaaqpcawXc:$DATA
I would really appreciate any one being able to tell me what is going on
here. I thought I could just ignore the extra files but some
applications on the Windows machine seem to think this directory has
files and subdirectories in it.
Thanks in advance

[Samba] Problems copying digital images to Samba Share

I had the same issue. Posted a message in this list, and discovered that it's a bug. If you upgrade to the latest version, the problem should disappear, but you'll still have to manually remove those garbage files. Cheers! -----Original Message----- From: Andreas Mack [mailto:vasquez@mediales.net] Sent: Monday, November 18, 2002 11:43 AM To: Tom@LennonKeegan.Com Cc: samba@lists.samba.org Subject: Re: [Samba] Problems copying digital images to Samba Share On Mon, 2002-11-18 at 04:18, Tom Lennon wrote:> -rwxr--r-- 1 Ttt Ttt 0 Nov 14 20:40 > LK00000005373.png:{4c8cc155-6c1e-11d1-8e41-00c04fb9386d}:$DATA > -rwxr--r-- 1 Ttt Ttt 6340 Nov 14 20:40 > LK00000005373.png:?Q30lsldxJoudresxAaaqpcawXc:$DATA >Hi, I'm having the same problem, these files just show up on "multimedia stuff" like pics, scanners, music. Some sort of indexing or thumbnailing those files. Most of the time they end with .".tmp:encryptable:$DATA" My problem is that they are generated in the profile directory and when the client wants to copy them back from the samba server, it fails and the user can't log in with his/her profile (using temp profile). Maybe vetoing "*$DATA" files will help but I have yet to try it. Does anybody else have a solution for this problem ? -- Andreas Mack <vasquez@mediales.net> mediales.
