shared folder new behaviour

Now when I move something out of a shared windows folder from our Linux server, I get this message:

mv: listing attributes of ‘THE_FILE_NAME.mp3’: Numerical result out of range

After the file is moved to a local drive on the Linux server, moving it elsewhere doesn't give this error. Maybe this behaviour is something to do with this,

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/File_permissions_and_attributes

"mv silently discards extended attributes when the target file system does not support them."

Edit: Most probably this message is due to group name or user name not being mapped to GID or UID properly, I guess - as discussed at https://serverfault.com/questions/811997/mounting-a-cifs-share-fails-with-numerical-result-out-of-range
