Windows permissions for hidden files not being maintained

[Fraser999]

Create a text file in windows and make it hidden

Copy the file over to the Sigmoid Drive (Linux based shared over Samba)

When you view the properties using the drive mount on Windows it'll not retain the hidden file attribute.

Doing the same with the read only attribute for example works fine, this only appears to be an issue with hidden files.

Environment

Win 7 32 bit, Samba shared sigmoid drive, mounted on the windows drive letter Z
Ubuntu 11 64bit, drive shared using Samba. Chunkstore located on a separate partition.
