Hello, When I sometimes sit down at my Samba PDC and fire up the monitor, there are occasionally some log file messages displaying on the screen. This is while nobody is logged onto the local server, it is displayed right over the logon prompt. Here is an example... smb_trans2_request: result=-104, setting invalid smb_retry: successful, new pid=3347, generation=4 From what I gather, it appears that samba is running into an error and then it is spawning another process to take care of the user request. I can and should find out exactly what is happening to cause that, but right now I want to see what I can do to keep those messages from appearing on the monitor. Any suggestions? Thanks!
