https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13712 --- Comment #4 from Steve French <sfrench@xxxxxxxxx> --- Can you tell me which version you still see it failing in? It works for me in 5.10. See below: root@smfrench-ThinkPad-P52:/mnt2# mkdir subdir root@smfrench-ThinkPad-P52:/mnt2# cd subdir root@smfrench-ThinkPad-P52:/mnt2/subdir# mkdir dir-trailing-dot. root@smfrench-ThinkPad-P52:/mnt2/subdir# ls dir-trailing-dot. root@smfrench-ThinkPad-P52:/mnt2/subdir# echo foo > dir-trailing-dot./foo root@smfrench-ThinkPad-P52:/mnt2/subdir# mkdir x root@smfrench-ThinkPad-P52:/mnt2/subdir# echo foo > x/foo root@smfrench-ThinkPad-P52:/mnt2/subdir# mv x dir2-trailing-dot. root@smfrench-ThinkPad-P52:/mnt2/subdir# ls dir2-trailing-dot. foo root@smfrench-ThinkPad-P52:/mnt2/subdir# cat dir2-trailing-dot./foo foo root@smfrench-ThinkPad-P52:/mnt2/subdir# mount | grep cifs //localhost/scratch on /mnt2 type cifs (rw,relatime,vers=3.1.1,cache=strict,username=smfrench,uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=127.0.0.1,file_mode=0755,dir_mode=0755,soft,nounix,serverino,mapposix,mfsymlinks,rsize=4194304,wsize=4194304,bsize=1048576,echo_interval=60,actimeo=1) This was fixed multiple years ago in patch: commit 45e8a2583d97ca758a55c608f78c4cef562644d1 Author: Steve French <smfrench@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Jun 22 21:07:32 2016 -0500 File names with trailing period or space need special case conversion POSIX allows files with trailing spaces or a trailing period but SMB3 does not, so convert these using the normal Services For Mac mapping as we do for other reserved characters such as : < > | ? * This is similar to what Macs do for the same problem over SMB3.
