Hey,we are using Alfresco in an engineering company which uses Autodesk Revit Architecture 2009. When saving a project, this program backs up the file by renaming it. Here's the process as a series of smb packages:11 3.985584 srcIP dstIP SMB Trans2 Request, FIND_FIRST2, Pattern: \PROJEKT1"<.RVT

Start from line 45 again forever…
The program looks for any files named "Projek1*.rvt", however, it just gets an error back (#12). Consequently it assumes theres no file with such a name and starts its backup process: renaming the file from "Projekt1.rvt" to "Projekt1.0001.rvt" (#45). This results in an error again because "Projekt1.0001.rvt" already exists (from the previous save). The program tries over and over again ending up in a never ending loop.I assume this is a missing function in the CIFS protocol implemented/used by Alfresco; am I right? This makes Alfresco (recent versions) unusable for such companies. Would file a bug if this is nothing I can easily fix here.Regards,Tim
