Hi Guys,

Did anyone figure out why Windows XP explorer seems to exhibit strange behavior when accessing a Samba Gentoo Alpha share? Here are a couple of the problems that I'm seeing:

Creating a folder: XP seems to create a 'New Folder' and 'New Folder 2' folder when using the menus.

Drag and Drop Copy: I can drag a file onto a folder and the file is placed correctly into the folder, but if I drag a file into an open folder window it fails with an error saying that the share is unavailable

I saw some comments earlier, but didn't see a resolution. Any luck?
