subject: Copying files and EA`s...

Hi Tobias,

 PK> IE, can ANY SMB peer handle EA's as part of File Serving? 

 TE> The Unix/Linux Samba server definitely cannot handle 
 TE> EAs. They are simply discarded, and the Samba docs also 
 TE> say so. The Workplace shell also tells you so (a 
 TE> warning message is issued that EAs will be lost when 
 TE> you try to move or copy a file via drag&drop to a Samba 
 TE> share).

Thanks for the confirmation, it was pretty much as I expected.

Cheers............pk.
