Or just accessed via network from a Windows client, as hinted in point #3
about a Samba share.

But as for why behavior described in point #3 would be the case, no idea, that
sounds like something that's not really possible.

One possibility though is that a file manager that the user runs on the server
itself bails on showing a directory listing entirely, if it has some incorrect
entries in it (those that show up as ???????????? in 'ls'), but the Windows
one doesn't, or Samba doesn't export those in the first place. I'd suggest
examining the drive content from console with "ls" and not via any graphical
or even text-based file manager.
