smbfs files empty


Hello,
I have sort of an interesting problem concerning the use of mounted smb files systems.
Mounts of remote shares with a small number of files seems to work without any issues. When I mount a remote share that contains a large number of files and I mean in the range of thousands the files all appear to be empty. When I cat them, I get nothing, when I cp them my the target file size is always 0 bytes in size. All of this occurs without any apparent errors of any sort.
Does this sound familiar to anyone?
Jim

I learned that increasing the TTL option to much higher values, allows reading of the files within the TTL period IF I go in with the shell and do a directory listing.
Does this help anyone understand this problem???
