Yes thumbsdb is definitely updated each time thumbnails is turned on.
BTW no NAT, firewall, etc.. on the client, but the server is behind a 
NAT firewall for the external address for eth0,  eth1 is passthrough.

I.e. the afs server is listening on 2 IP addresses, I've just deleted 
the external IP address from NetInfo and restarted the server and will 
experiment from there.

Yes, and it works fine using a local windows directory and also using a 
Linux browser to browse the directory (with thumbnails on) on any Linux box.
I'm building the project picture directory under Linux and dragging it 
to windows..

How does one not create the thumbs.db file?
