HiHo! I don't know wether this is an old one, but I've never seen this messages before: Due to security issues I updated our servers to samba-2.2.8 with the following "configure"-options: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/samba-2.2.8 --with-pam --with-ldapsam --with-syslog --with-quotas --with-acl-support After the update I'm experiencing strange behaviour when deleteing complete directories: All files in this directories will get deleted, but the directory itself is still visible in the Explorer (in this case a Windows 2000, SP2 system). Explorer is producing a error message ("Folder has been moved or delete" (roughly translated into english as the original is a german message)). Samba is logging the following message to syslog: set_delete_on_close_internal: failed to change delete on close flag for file bla/blub/foldername Pressing "F5" (Refresh) in Explorer deletes the corresponding entry in the directory tree display. Server system is a Linux 2.4.17, XFS filesystem, quotas turned on. Any hints?
