Office files getting corrupted under Win2k/upgrade to 2.2.1a?
I'm running Samba 2.06 under Tru64 Unix 4.0G. This has been working well for us for the past few years. Lately, though, I've been getting reports of MS Office files getting corrupted upon save. The common thread in these reports seems to be a Windows 2000 client. So, I've been investigating upgrading to a more recent version of Samba. I installed 2.2.1a on a different Tru64 machine (not the main file server), to see if our config file would work without modification. However, it's not going smoothly. I can see the server in a Network Neighborhood, but this error message comes up under NT4 and 2000: \\Hal is not accessible. No more connections can be made to this remote computer at this time because there are already as many connections as this computer can accept. log.nmbd is filled with lines like this: [2001/10/02 11:28:00, 0] tdb/tdbutil.c:(342) tdb(/software/samba/var/locks/unexpected.tdb): tdb_oob len 1712 beyond eof at 176 [2001/10/02 11:28:00, 0] tdb/tdbutil.c:(342) tdb(/software/samba/var/locks/unexpected.tdb): tdb_oob len 1956 beyond eof at 176 Any ideas what might be causing this? Might it be because Hal is accessing it's disk shares via NFS from the main file server (Guy)? -- Dan Bongert dbongert@ssc.wisc.edu SSCC Unix System Administrator (608) 262-9857
