SMB share on Mac will not list/browse new files

Hi!

I have some strange SMB behavior when accessing a Unraid share (6.12.3)

NB! This only happens on Mac. If I mount the share on Linux or Windows, everything works fine and I do not have these issues.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create file on Mac or server - e.g. echo "test" > aaa.txt

2. Do "ls aa*" in Mac terminal or browse folder in Finder

3. Observe that file is not found

4. Do "ls -la aaa.txt" and observer that file actually is found. Do "open aaa.txt" and observe that files is actually opened.

So for some reason it will not list/browse file, but the file is there:

steinrr@SteinsMacStudio tria % ls aa*        
zsh: no matches found: aa*
steinrr@SteinsMacStudio tria % ls -la aaa.txt
-rwx------  1 steinrr  staff  5 Sep 11 22:00 aaa.txt

If I mount using NFS, the file shows with no issues and is browsable:

steinrr@SteinsMacStudio tria % ls aa*                                                                                                  
aaa.txt
steinrr@SteinsMacStudio tria % ls -la aaa.txt                                                                                          
-rwxrw-rw-  1 1000  _lpoperator  5 Sep 11 22:00 aaa.txt

I can also open the file - e.g. using history in Excel - even if I cannot browse the file.

I checked the file - it has correct permissions and nothing special - it has the same permissions, ownership and attributes as all other files in the folder.

NB! This just happens for new files, all old files existing on the shares before I probably tweaked smb-fruit.conf is showing fine.

What can be wrong here? I did experiment with some fruit-settings to make SMB working better on Mac and I guess some of these might cause issues Here are my current smb-fruit.conf:

root@stardustunraid:~# cat /boot/config/smb-fruit.conf 

vfs objects = catia fruit streams_xattr

fruit:metadata = stream

fruit:encoding = native

fruit:posix_rename = yes

Maybe there is something here that should not be set like this?

How does default smb-fruit look?

Best regards,
