I've noticed some issues with copying files to an smb share from macosx clients like the last week.. haven't had time to investigate it fully, but it sure seems EA related.. Copying a file from smb to smb (via the client) works as long as the file hasn't gotten any EA yet.. If I for instance do the "hide file ext", then it's not working anymore. Enabling EA on a file works, but creating one with EA doesn't.. So it seems like a Finder bug.. Copying via terminal (and cp) works. > At the moment I have a workaround: I use sftp to copy the files from the > laptop to the server.
