samba - Oct 2004 - Missing folders when accessing via Samba ?

Hi,

I have a linux server (FC2) with samba 3.0.7 (3.0.7-2.FC2).  
Everything was fine but recently I found the some folders that I used
to access from windows clients are missing.

They exist if I log on the samba server (using ssh) and ls. but does
not apper in my windows machine.  Other folders in the same share do
appear.

All folders (that appear and don't appear) have the same owner/group
and permitions.

If I put the full path (]\\samba\share\missing_folder) in my windows
explorer I can access the missing folder and use it without a problem.

I am not quite sure but it seems to have started after the latest
update of my samba version.

The machine has been rebooted since this event.

Any ideas ?

I have the same trouble, but in my case is with Win XP machines and
G5.The G5, lost some files in transfers of big number of files, and
then this same files look like dissapear in the XP machine when you
browse from G5.You look into the XP from XP an there it is.....
weird!!!

Any clues about this?

thanks
