>Description:
We have NTFS disc images we would like to be able to export via Samba.
There seems to be a bug in the NTFS code which causes directories to appear
as zero byte files to Samba initially. However, once they have been entered
via some other method such as with `find /mount/point -type -d` they then
correctly show up as directories and can be browsed through Samba.

The same process with non-NTFS disc images works as expected first time.
	
>How-To-Repeat:
# mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /image/file
# mount_ntfs -o ro /dev/md0s1 /mount/point
# -- export /mount/point with samba

-- try and browse the share, directories will appear as empty files

# find /mount/point -type d

-- try and browse the share, directories will appear properly
	
>Fix:
Unknown.
