CSD #: N/A

Bug Description: If a file that has a reserved word (nul, LPT1, LPT2, con, etc) as it's name gets created in a directory on the server that is also a Mac volume, all the files in that volume become invisible to the Macintosh after approximately 20 seconds. The Mac can copy files into the volume but they will eventually disappear. If you attempt to copy a file of the same name as one already on the volume, an error is returned stating that the file already exists.

Fix Description: Files with reserved word names are now filtered out.

Component affected: AFP.EXE
