hi folks,
i'am just reporting a nuisance and not a big problem.
since i graded up from 15p8 to 17, smbstatus reports correctly the
momentarily active shares. then, (trying ot report share-locked files i
guess) it says
smbstatus: Unable to open share file
/usr/local/samba/var/locks/share.[a lot if digits].[a lot of
digits]
for quite a lot of files actually to be found in that directory, being mode
644, owned by root and zero-sized. a cronjob regulary rm's these if older
then s.th. but i think this is not the idea. does smbd forget or is it
lacking rights to remove these files?
smbd is started from inetd as "root root". where is the problem?
later
Hardy
