No.

It does not seem some "security" or ACL issue...

This happens also when an XP client create a new file on the share...

We've never seen before this.

He had just wrote us that he has tried to apply the patch and registry modification with no luck.

In the same time I've noted that my "shell32.dll" of my XP SP2 client (never had those issues!) is datet october 25, 2007, (version 6.00.2900.3241 (xpsp_sp2_qfe.071025-1245), size 8.489.472 byte) so that much more recent than the one cited in the MS article.

I've then discovered that my newest explorer is due to a Windows Update from KB943460 (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=...)

I've suggested him, for now, to try to do this update on one of its XP SP2 clients.

Perhaps at some prior point in time they may have used a unix (Samba) system in their environment and it changed the ACL version or something to that effect?

Hi all

A customer of ours migrating to a new NetApp all their shares (from a Samba server on Linux) got this well documented error, both from NetApp and Microsoft.

Data Ontap is 7.2.4.

The problem is that neither me or some collegues of mine have had this issue, from XP clients or other Windows OS!!!

So, why this customer is getting this bug now?

He ha also tried to change the registry key (its clients are all XP SP2) but nothing change! Any file system operation performer by an XP client need a refresh (F5) of the explorer...

Any idea?

NetApp says:

CIFS: Files created by Windows XP are not visible without pressing F5

Symptoms

When a Windows XP workstation is mapping filer shares through a DFS root and a new file is added, the new file may not be visible in Windows Explorer until the user explicitly refreshes the window (in Windows Explorer by pressing F5).

CIFS: Files created by Windows XP are not visible without pressing F5
