I am using samba 4.0.9 under Ubuntu server 12.04. The samba installation in
question is a domain member and the primary file server in a mixed Linux/Win
environment. The domain controller is also samba 4.0.9, . I occasionally
receive messages like the following errors in my syslog:
smbd[2612]: [2013/10/30 14:06:25.368202, 0]
../source3/smbd/smb2_server.c:667(smb2_validate_message_id)
smbd[2612]: smb2_validate_message_id: client used more credits than granted,
mid 8, charge 1, credits_granted 0, seqnum low/range: 8/0
On-line searching hasn't revealed much information about these messages. I
see that there is a "smb2 max credits" configuration parameter, but
the default is 8192 which doesn't jive with the above message. The
documentation also says "You should never need to set this parameter."
Is this something I need to worry about? If so, does anyone have any insight as
to what might be causing this?
