This seems to occur when a Windows SMB share is being mounted when the computer the share is being hosted on uses case insensitive file naming (which is default on most Windows systems). >How-To-Repeat: Change to an smbfs mounted directory and rename the case of a filename. Example: rename TEST.MP3 to test.mp3 using 'mv TEST.MP3 test.mp3'). This gives the following output: 'mv: rename TEST.MP3 to test.mp3: No such file or directory' Listing the directory using ls shows that the file no longer exists. >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
