Files not visible with AFP but with CIFS
Hi, I wonder why I can't see file while using AFP. If I try to view the folder via CIFS, I can see all the files. What can I do? I'm using a ULTRA 6 PLUS with Radiator 4.2.19. On the other side ...
Is it possible the extended attributes for the files are set making the files hidden to Finder? These would likely remain intact via an AFP share, but be ignored, hidden or stripped via an SMB/CIFS share. Do you know how to check with Terminal and xattr commands?
ls -l
- "This will list files in the folder. If there is an '@' after the permissions, there are hidden attributes. If so....
xattr -l filename
- "This will show you the extended attributes"
Might be way off, but I've has similar issues and this is typically the issue.
