Description of problem: I'm trying to copy over a big directory (3000+ files 180mb) from a windows server to linux box using smb built into nautilius. But it dies without reason Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): latest in fc2 How reproducible: 100% but where is dies seems random. Steps to Reproduce: 1.open nautius 2.open location (cntl-L) 3.type share "smb://server/share/" 4.enter permissions 5.select folder to copy 6.drag to another nautilus window on local disk 7.wait for copy to finish Actual results: coping stops after only copying some of the files (maybe 1000+) but it is not the same amount each time. Does not appear to be a permission problem since I can manually copy the files subfolder by subfolder. Expected results: Copying to complete flawlessly. If there is a problem it should not just drop out. Additional info: I'm copying to a vfat partition. Also, I notice that the progress bar finishes before all the files are copied over.
Does copying to a non-vfat partition work?
