Hi,
I have Samba 2.0.5a running on several HP-UX 10.20 machines. (all different
hardware and patchlevel).
On one (and only one) of the machines i see at irregular intervals the next
error: ERROR! Out of connection structures
excerpt from the smb.log:

This sounds like a leak to me, maybe solved by a patch or a change of a
kernel parameter for the underlying OS. But, as all samba machines are different
hardware and patchlevel, i cannot easily tell which one. The samba release is
exactly identical on all machines and the configuration is almost the same. On
the one affected i did not completely disable oplocks, but used the oplock veto
feature for some files instead.
Any experiences with this particular error? Backgrounds?
Thanks!
