A while back, I wrote a couple of blog posts about the FileVault quirks in OSX. The problems seemed to be gone with the upgrade to Snow Leopard, but this week I ran into a (new??) 'feature'?
When I remove a directory on a (SMB) file-share it removes the files and directory (or so it seems). But after a couple of seconds the (empty) directory re-appears. Trying to delete the directory is impossible, and results in the following error:
The operation can't be completed because an unexpected error occurred (error code -8072)
When I try to remove the directory through Microsoft Remote desktop on the server itself I get:
Cannot delete file: cannot read from the source file or disk.
When I disconnect my MacBook from the server, by 'ejecting' the volume, the directory automagically disappears. This behaviour only occurs when I use Snow Leopard with FileVault enabled to delete stuff on the SMB share. Hence, OSX FileFault still sucks.
