I can also confirm this bug and notice the following behaviour: I mounted a Iomega NAS over a wireless network via cifs with the following line in /etc/fstab:
//192.168.1.20/User /home/user/NAS cifs iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,noperm,credentials=/home/user/.smbcredentials,uid=1000 0 0 I can browse to a directory I know with cd, but ls returns no output. However, when I copy a file to my computer, it works fine, but if I copy another file it just creates a new file with the contents of the first file that was copied. I had to umount/mount every time to get all my images. Example of what I did: Result: two identical images: sudo mount -a cd "NAS/Drive D (D) on ENTRESOL/Work User/Pictures/2008/20081119 Various Pictures" cp DSC03726.JPG ~/Desktop/gs cp DSC03727.JPG ~/Desktop/gs Result: two different images: cd ~ sudo umount NAS sudo mount -a cd "NAS/Drive D (D) on ENTRESOL/Work User/Pictures/2008/20081119 Various Pictures" cp DSC03726.JPG ~/Desktop/gs cd ~ sudo umount NAS sudo mount -a cd "NAS/Drive D (D) on ENTRESOL/Work User/Pictures/2008/20081119 Various Pictures" cp DSC03727.JPG ~/Desktop/gs Hope this helps. -- 2.6.31 - Can't see files in CIFS-mounted directories https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/406466 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
