Hi all, My server is giving the following error [2002/05/22 17:46:31, 0] tdb/tdbutil.c:(492) tdb(/usr/local/samba-2.2.4/var/locks/connections.tdb): tdb_oob len 122904 beyond eof at 696 [2002/05/22 17:46:31, 0] smbd/connection.c:(61) yield_connection: tdb_delete for name failed with error IO Error. [2002/05/22 17:46:31, 3] smbd/server.c:(495) Server exit (normal exit) The system running samba v 2.2.4 is a Tru64 4.0F pk 6 version and it has the following global conf settings ; config file = /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf.%m # status = yes security = user server string = Samba server (%v,%h) load printers = yes printcap name = /etc/printcap max open files = 4086 log level = 1 ; log level = 20 # use a separate log file for each machine that connects log file = /usr/local/samba/var/smbd.log.%m max log size = 500 password level = 0 read prediction = yes # This option will typically be used to tune your Samba server for optimal # performance for your local network.

Any pointers , It will be great If someone could point me in right direction. Thanx in advance yogesh
