The bug has been confirmed and there are explanations and patches but the maintainers don't seem ready to apply it which is unfortunate as it is a very nefarious bug (Windows 10 doesn't support SMB1.0 by default). If you aren't aware of this bug you could mistakenly think all files of a share are being backed up when they aren't. https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13107 https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-cifs/msg14170.html Explanation of bug: https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-cifs/msg14405.html Unfortunately I'm not sure how to apply the patches and recompile just the cifs module. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1572132 Title: SMB driver (SMBv2) does not show all files when mounting a windows top level share Status in Linux: Unknown Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: When using the SMBv2 Protocol to mount a top level windows share (such as C:\) not all files (or directories) are shown that exist on the server side. Exactly 2 files are always missing... Steps to reproduce: On a windows7 PC (or Server) e.g. C:\ must be published as Share (must be top level share - a subfolder like C:\data\ seems to work) sudo mount -t cifs //SERVER/SHARE_NAME /mnt -o domain=DOMAIN_NAME,username=${USER},uid=1000,gid=1000,nounix,vers=2.0 As a result always 2 Files (or directories) are missing in the mounted directory of the ubuntu installation.
