Ello --
For the past few months our Samba installation, currently at Version
3.0.28 has filling the log. file with
[2008/04/17 13:25:30, 0] smbd/notify_inotify.c:inotify_handler(234)
No data on inotify fd?!
This is started to happen almost weekly and it continues to output
those lines until the log partition is full, then leaves a single
process spiked to 100% until I kill it. There is nothing out of the
ordinary in the log. file prior to mass error output. However, the
process that is spiked (and I presume is causing the output) is always
owned by the same user.
Their users log file is very out of the ordinary and contains lots of
output:

I killed the samba process with signal -6, but the core directory is
on the same partition as logging so it wasn't written.
Anyone else having this issue, or can think of a work around?
Thanks,
Dave
