Title:
  gvfsd-smb copies directory as empty file (sles10 cifsd)

Status in GVFS:
  Unknown
Status in “gvfs” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gvfs

  Problem occurs ubuntu 9.04 (i386 & amd64) & 9.10 beta (i386 & amd64)
  (1.4.1-0ubuntu1)

  When copying a directory from a gvfs smb mount , destination is created as an empty file with the same name as src directory
  Both nautilus copy and gvfs-copy create an empty file with the name of the src directory
  However using:   "cp -r ~/.gvfs/share\ on\ server/folder /tmp"  it does work correctly

  smb share is on a novell sles10 server (novell patches applied as of 1 october 09)
  Have no problem with other samba shares - only seems to be with novells cifsd . It might be their broken implementation, however there is no problems when copying folders using cp  or when share is mounted using mount.cifs so I am not too sure

  Please let me know if there is any further information I can provide
  at all.
