Hi all I've been having problems with zfs, samba and large directories. If I have a large zfs directory and try to accesses it via smb://, I have parts of the directory missing (sometimes over 50%) and even duplicated. I could not reproduce the problem on a UFS filesystem. doing a mount_smbfs, everything is fine. using windows (including cygwin) or konqueror via smb:// fails badly (konqueror even worse than explorer). I have been seeing this problem since 7.0-RC1, but only now gotten around to pinning it down. test program: in a new directory for i in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 do for j in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 do for k in 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 do touch "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbccccccccccccccccc$i$j$k" done done done then try accessing from a windows box (or konqueror via smb://) Both explorter and cygwin show the same results from windows. A packet sniffer indicated that the data was being send inncorrectly Could some others of you try to confirm (or not) my findings. I am running 7.0-release (amd64) and samba-3.0.28,1. I believe this to be a zfs issue due to my not being able to reproduce the problem with UFS (not even once). regards Duncan
