Re: [Samba] zero byte files
Should I just send this report to the Bugzilla then? I was hoping someone could tell me where I could find informative logs or something, so I could write a better bug report.

I mount the share with the following line in my fstab: It's not clear what you're using as a server here, Samba or Windows? If Windows, then it may be a bug in the CIFS VFS Linux kernel client. Can you reproduce the same issue using a supported (rather than sid) Debian kernel?
