Probably a pretty old one.  Any chance you can update?  It seems
that older Samba versions (or are these specific SunOS Samba
versions?) don't return an unambiguous inode number to Windows.

That means, the above combination of flags identify your file
system as Samba to Cygwin.  Recent Samba versions (at least on
Linux) are known to return unambiguous inode numbers, so Cygwin
utilizes the returned inode numbers.  Apparently your Samba
is too old or somehow a branch from an older Smaba version.

Any chance you can upgrade to something more recent?  I'm a bit
reluctant to change Cygwin so that this capability is lost to
users of recent Samba versions...
