PC’s accesing smb shares and Refreshing…

[Zeheeba]

Hello all,

For some reason on two 10.4.3 servers we are running, PC users need to select refresh after creating any new folders or files on the share. Is there a way around this? Its confusing some of our less computer savy clients, which is understandable.

Specifics, they are mounting a home directory as the user who owns it. The created files/folders are placed on the server but will not appear in their PC window until they select to refresh the window.

Sound familiar to anyone?

Thanks!
Regards,

This was taken care of. Due a rather complex DS structure in our environment at the moment, things are hard to diagnose, so it seemed like a much larger problem.

It turns out the client just hadn’t restarted their machine in about 3 weeks. Funny huh?
