Thank you for finally posting to cygwin (see http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-findutils/2006-04/msg00002.html for the original thread at bug-findutils, and for my pleas to report this bug to the correct list). > > V:\>find --version > GNU find version 4.3.0 > Features enabled: O_NOFOLLOW(enabled) LEAF_OPTIMISATION FTS > > The cygwin1.dll is version 1.5.19-cr-0x5ef/2006-01-20 13:28 However, you are still missing some information. Attaching a huge strace without being asked by one of the cygwin developers is often a waste of bandwidth, since they already know about the changing inode bug present with some versions of remote Samba drives, and can already reproduce the problem. What is needed instead is the output of 'cygcheck -svr', as detailed here: > Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Also, Corinna would like to see more details about the Samba drive you are connecting to. What version is it, and what is the output of the program mentioned in this email? http://sourceware.org/ml/cygwin/2006-01/msg00818.html > Find says the directories do not exist: > > V:\>find > . This is because of the changing inode bug in older versions of Samba. Corinna checked in a patch on March 31st that tries to tell various Samba versions apart, have you tried the 20060403 snapshot yet? Although I maintain the cygwin findutils port, I am unable to help further on this issue since I don't have access to a Samba drive. -- Eric Blake volunteer cygwin findutils maintainer -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
