Sorry, no joy. Per your suggestion, I installed the latest version of coreutils, 6.6.91, recompiled, and then re-ran my test program (code above).
The first time I ran it, it reported some errors, and that there are 363015 files on the volume. The second time I ran it, it reported completely different results. Different errors, and different totals: /mnt/duz_cdrive/rave_jpeg_test - rave_jpeg_test - 2 - No such file or directory /mnt/duz_cdrive/Readiris - Readiris - 2 - No such file or directory /mnt/duz_cdrive/scans - scans - 2 - No such file or directory /mnt/duz_cdrive/Symtemp - Symtemp - 2 - No such file or directory /mnt/duz_cdrive/system.sav - system.sav - 2 - No such file or directory /mnt/duz_cdrive/thin - thin - 2 - No such file or directory /mnt/duz_cdrive/Virtual Machines - Virtual Machines - 2 - No such file or directory Total: 457211 However, it's the same old volume that changes by a few tens to a few hundreds of files per day. All of the listed directories are available from the command line, for example: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/mnt/duz_cdrive/scans$ ls -al total 510 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 2007-01-23 10:53 . drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4096 2007-12-21 08:53 .. -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 58472 2007-01-23 10:43 testcolor2.tif -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 58126 2007-01-23 10:38 testcolor.tif -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 59568 2007-01-23 10:43 testgray2.tif -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 58152 2007-01-23 10:38 testgray.tif -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 51992 2007-01-23 10:53 test_modified.tif -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 59836 2007-01-23 10:42 testmono2.tif -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 58232 2007-01-23 10:37 testmono.tif -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 54490 2007-01-23 10:53 test_original.tif -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 52250 2007-01-23 10:53 test.tif Thank you.
