Invisible files for mac os 9 on windows 2003 server

[dreb]

When a pc creates files or folders on windows 2003 server they are
invisible from mac.
Restart filesharing and the files are visible again. But the problem
reappeares next time files are created. Some index problem. Any solution
to this major bug?
Microsoft have not heard about it. The same bug was in 2000 server, before
one of the servicepacks.

Hi dreb!

Have you tried removing and then recreating the Mac volume? It may have
some corruption. Doing this is similar to removing and recreating a
Windows share. Only the sharepoint is deleted and not the files on the
volume itself. I'd suggest rebooting between the removal and recreation
of the Mac volume just to dot i's and cross t's.

Hope this helps! bill

I am having the exact same problem. I have tried everything. Does anyone
have any ideas on this? This is a big issue.

Thanks!

Hi,

How big is your mac volume.?...number of files in the single folder?
There may be some file limitation from the APPLE side..
This may be due to the large files in the shared folder. for that we need to
load balance the share..

Here is the link for thefile limitation from apple side..

I have the same problem, has anyone come up with a resolution. It is
not a permissions or file naming issue. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
