Hi I tried googling and searching the archives, but I guess I don't know how to choose the best keywords to describe my problem. So, I'll ask here. I have a samba box (3.0.5) sharing 1 folder. This folder contains 2 subfolders; both have around 900 files on each. On my linux box (kde), I can use the smb kio slave and everything is as expected, I can see all the files on both folders. Now on two windows 2000 clients (sp3 & sp4) I use, they can only see, say, around 200 files on the 1st subfolder, and around 100 on the 2nd subfolder. The numbers aren't always the same, although both machines always return identical reports on file listings. What could possibly be wrong? Here are the relevant parts of smb.conf, all the rest is default: ----------------------------------------------------- [global] workgroup = COLORTECH guest account = vendas security = share [Documentos] path = /home/vendas/Documentos writable = yes guest ok = yes public = yes ----------------------------------------------------- Of course, "vendas" is a valid user account and file permissions are ok. I had this in the past, where the two subfolders were once one with around 1600 files. I thought it could be the large number of files so I split them into two folders and the problem was gone. All of a sudden, it reappeared, even though there are far fewer files than before. Any ideas? Thanks Gustavo PS: please cc me as I am not subscribed to the list.
