[Samba] Srtring Overflow Error in Samba 2.0
In my var/log.smb file I am getting the error: String overflow by 18 in safe_strcopy [adaigle ahenry ajleblanc ] a long list My share is setup with the list of valid users i.e. valid users = user1 user2 \ user3 user4 writeable =yes Is there some limit to the number of users listed this way. A bad character in there? Some users are not getting their drives mapped. Running Solaris 2.6 on a SUN box. Thanks for any ideas on this.

If you have that many users listed, it would be better to use a group IMO, cheers, jerry --------------------------------------------------------------------- Hewlett-Packard http://www.hp.com SAMBA Team http://www.samba.org -- http://www.plainjoe.org "Sam's Teach Yourself Samba in 24 Hours" 2ed.
