Did you mean to send a zero-byte strace.txt file as an attachment? It looks empty to me, at least.

Find does find the plain files on the network drive - but it's giving errors on the directories, saying they don't exist. > Do the things that apparently don't exist > actually exist? Yes - I have used the files on that server for several years. >Is there a difference in the cases of the names?

I only have one Samba server and don't really want to reconfigure it. It's used for my business and has worked for years with Win98, WinNT, WinXP, Debian Linux, and FreeBSD. I just recent started using the igrep package with XEmacs, which calls find and grep, and that's when the problems started. > See above for some ideas.

Incidentally, when I run find 4.1.7 on another machine with an older installation, it works correctly with the Samba drive. The cygwin1.dll version on that machine is 1.5.10-0x5E6/2004-05-25 22:07. The machine that doesn't work has find/4.3.0 and cygwin1.dll/1.5.19-0x5EF/2006-01-20 13:28 On that machine that did not work, I also tried the newest snapshot of the cygwin1 dll (at the suggestion of another developer) but the failure was exactly the same.
