You might be running into a filename mangling limitation in Samba. That was my first interpretation after the test case with the filenames. However, everything works well when I put the same set of files on a UFS volume shared by samba. When copying the same set of files to another directory on ext2fs the directory listings are still incomplete. It happens with the test data as well as with real life file sets. When I create the files starting at I can see the files with the number to 0128, when I create them starting at 0999 down to , I can see 0999 to 0871. So I think it doesn't look like filename mangling problems. To me it looks like smbd retrieves the first subset of files which fit into an internal memory block, returns that and does not get the next subset of files from the directory. I read a problem like that for another scenario but unfortunately can't locate it any more.

Incomplete file listing with Samba on ext2fs
Hi, I've set up a FreeBSD6.2 machine and moved my file server disk from a Linux system where it was used before. The disk uses ext2fs. In FreeBSD I can see all files, when looking at the samba shares from a Windows 2000 system, I do not see all files. I also do not see all files when using smbclient on FreeBSD. A test case went like that: I created 1000 files named file000 ... file0999 in a directory. I could see all of them via Windows. I created 1000 files named file-.file ... file-0999.file in a directory. I could see the first 130 files of them. I added this to my smb.conf, because I found related information on the web and this fixed some problems with incomplete directory listing which I encountered a few days ago: dos charset = CP850 unix charset = UTF-8 display charset = LOCALE When I copy my large list of files to a UFS volume, I can see the full listing via Windows. Apart from switching the ext2s to ufs, does someone has other suggestions for solving the problem? Do you suggest another group for this question?
