The background of the situation:
The volume that is being mounted is on an Iomega NAS A300u running some variant of UNIX. I am pushing our Mac users to connect via SMB due to the NAS unit not being able to show AFP clients files whose names are longer than 31 characters.
My current problem:
Volumes mounted in SMB (Samba) on Mac OS X (at least with Leopard 10.5.2) appear to be grossly inflating the file sizes of folders and files (see attached screenshot). The byte size appears to be correct.
Also, files viewed from SMB appear to be rounded up to the next full MB. So a 100 K JPEG file would appear to be 1 MB in the Finder window.
Is there a known file size issue with SMB on Mac OS X?
