Hi all,

Two of my linux boxes provide netatalk exports, both provided by
netatalk-1.4b2+asun2.1.3-6.i386.rpm. One runs Red Hat (kernel 2.2.12-20)
and the other Mandrake (kernel 2.2.17-21mdksecure).

In the RH-exported directory, the files TheFindByContentFolder,
TheVolumeSettingsFolder and Network Trash Folder are all invisible to
Mac clients.

In the Mandrake-exported directory, the Network Trash Folder file is
invisible but the other two are visible. Removing them manually works
for the duration of the session, but when the connection is broken and
re-established they reappear.

The file ownerships and permissions are identical.

I don't wants clients to have to see these files. Could somebody explain
what they do, and what anomaly might explain my situation? Thanks!

Ralph de Rijke
