[HPADM] Samba problem: "Cannot Copy File. The path is too deep."

Hpux-admins:

We set up samba on several of our HP-UX servers.

One of our uses has a problem on his Windows client:

        If he copies a file from C:\blah.blah to X:\customer\1.0\reports\US

                he gets the above error:

                        "Cannot Copy File. The path is too deep."

        If he copies a file from C:\blah.blah to Y:\customer\1.0\reports\US

                it works just fine

        where "X" is one UNIX server and
                "Y" is another UNIX server

In short the "X" SAMBA or server file systems aren't set up right, and I
guess the "Y" server/file systems are set up correctly.

So, where will I look for this problem?

I'm going to start checking EVERYTHING: SAMBA setup and file system
permissions all the up/down the tree.
