To see the ~snapshot directory, set the option cifs.show_snapshot on the filer .

When creating a share from the filer console, using the cifs shares command, use the /vol/voln/ form of the path name to the directory.

I have a couple of basic questions:-

1. I cannot see the ~SNAPSHOT directory at the root of each share. The

directory is certainly there, but it doesn't appear in the list. I'm using NT 4, IE5, SP6 and the "Show all Hidden Files" turned on. The manual says I should see it, but it isn't there. Am I missing something?

2. When a create shares I sometimes get the "Device or Directory cannot be

found" but the directory exists. Should I be using the C:\stuff name or c:\vol\vol0\stuff?
