These fake directories differ from the real directory in that they have no contents. I can't simply mount the directory case-insensitive for various reasons (I need access to the real filename), and this is causing significant aggravation. >How-To-Repeat: Try to access a directory and it's wrongly-cased variants: $ mount -t smbfs //WEB2@NEWPDC/E on /mnt/newpdc/e (smbfs, noexec) $ ls -la /mnt/newpdc/e/temp total 9514 drwxr-xr-x 1 www www 16384 Jul 19 09:09 . drwxr-xr-x 1 www www 16384 Dec 31 1969 .. -rwxr-xr-x 1 www www 608709 May 25 2005 82590.tif -rwxr-xr-x 1 www www 270336 Sep 4 2003 BIL.dll [snipped] -rwxr-xr-x 1 www www 26422 Oct 26 2005 report.pdf drwxr-xr-x 1 www www 16384 Jan 28 2004 test $ ls -la /mnt/newpdc/e/tEmP total 32 drwxr-xr-x 1 www www 16384 Jul 19 09:09 . drwxr-xr-x 1 www www 16384 Dec 31 1969 .. >Fix: If possible, use the "-c u" or "-c l" options to mount_smbfs to get coerce all pathnames to one case or the other. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
