[Bug 406466] [NEW] cifs mount on NAS-share with empty directory

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

Hi,

in Jaunty (amd64, 2.6.28-11, smbfs 3.3.2) i mounted a NAS-share with
VFAT filesystem with these commands:

- echo 0 > /proc/fs/cifs/LinuxExtensionsEnabled

- mount -t cifs -o user=abc,password=xyz,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0777
//192.168.xxx.yyy/sharename mountdir

and everythings works fine (even with other values of file_mode and/or
dir_mode).

In Karmic development version (amd64, 2.6.31-4, smbfs 3.4.0) these mount
commands are also successfull,  as /etc/mtab shows, but

1) the command 'ls mountdir' doesn't show any file

2) even worse, if i copy a file to this mountdir, it is not shown. But
if i mount this NAS-share from a second computer with installed jaunty,
i can see this file. It was really copied, but i can't see it from
Karmic.

3) and i can also use 'df -H mountdir' from Karmic to report file system
disk space usage of the NAS harddrive

4) but i can't see any file or directory

5) and not surprisingly: 'umount //192.168.xxx.yyy/sharename' works too
as it should.

ciao
