Description

Hello,

I really love fman but I encountered a problem (bug?) and I wondered if you can help. I'm mapping a SMB share into a local drive and while Windows file explorer displays all the folders, fman seems to miss some of them. Do you have any idea why? I'd love to give more information as needed. I restarted the server and fman whith any results.

Thank you.
