I've a PC with a 2.2.13 kernel and Samba 2.0.7. It serves shares to our lan and has had no problems since its install. Recently, I tried to copy a bunch of files from an older OS/2 server to the Samba server via smbclient and smbmount. Neither shows all the files in a few of the several directories on the OS/2 server, and neither agrees with the other as to the actual number of files. smbclient seems to have the upper hand, since I can force it to recognize that certain files do exist by wild card limitation of the returned fileset. smbmount reports an "Input/output error". There are no entries in any of the log files that correlate with this. All log entries seem to be a result of the server, not the smbfs. Here is an edited session: ============================================================================= smbclient //pc4000/archives -U cwilder -d 3 Client started (version 2.0.7). resolve_lmhosts: Attempting lmhosts lookup for name pc4000<0x20> resolve_hosts: Attempting host lookup for name pc4000<0x20> Connecting to 192.168.5.249 at port 139 Password: smb: \> cd b13496/CONTROLS dos_clean_name [\b13496\CONTROLS\] dos_clean_name [\b13496\CONTROLS\\] smb: \b13496\CONTROLS\> ls received 109 entries (eos=0) received 108 entries (eos=1) .
