ZFS + NFS yields FTP corrupt file names for some clients
807557Feb 9 2010 — edited Feb 18 2010Greetings,
I have user's home directories on a Solaris 10 server on a ZFS filesystem. These home directories are getting mounted via NFS to our FTP server which is running solaris 9. FTP service is provided by ProFTP.
For some clients (WS-FTP, Cyberduck, Windows Explorer) the file names are being pre-pended with date information, which ends up preventing access since a file with than name cannot be found. The file "A_Conference" becomes "1 19:49 A_Conference" which seems to be pulling part of the file's date "Feb 1 19:49" as the file name.
Using Firefox, Filezilla, or command line FTP everything works just fine: file names look as they should.
For NFS mounted directories from other servers which are Solaris 9 and are either VxFS or UFS there is no problem.
I am quite perplexed - anyone have ideas why some clients would work, and some not?
Thank you.
Bob
