I don't have any answers but I am also seeing some strange results exporting a Ceph file system using the Samba VFS interface on Ceph version 9.0.2. If I mount a Linux client with vers=1, I see the file system the same as I see it on a ceph file system mount. If I use vers=2.0 or vers=3.0 on the mount line, some directories disappear and the ownership changes. I am still early in my testing of this issue.
