[Samba] Drive already connected Error in Windows 2000
I have been successfully running with Samba 2.0.7 for more than a year now but am having problems using version 2.2.7; both are running under HP-UX. The 2.2.7 version of Samba is running under HP-UX 11, the 2.0.7 is running under HP-UX 10.20. Drive connections to Windows 2000 systems have started coming up with 'Drive already connected' errors. The log.smbd file has lots of (No locks available) errors when this starts to happen. When I look at the SMBD processes running on the samba server there are several deamons running that are not currently used. There is also more than one connection per client machine and I cant seem to kill -15 (or even kill -9) these smbd deamons. Any help would be gratefully appreciated!

[Samba] Drive already connected Error in Windows 2000
The W2K client systems may be at different service pack levels: most are probably at 2 or 3. Samba 2.2.7 is running on HP-UX 11. The last entries in the log.smbd before this happens are: [2003/02/03 10:59:40, 0] printing/nt_printing.c:(281) nt_printing_init: Failed to open nt forms database /usr/local/samba/locks/ntforms.tdb (No locks available) [2003/02/03 10:59:40, 0] printing/nt_printing.c:(281) nt_printing_init: Failed to open nt forms database /usr/local/samba/locks/ntforms.tdb (No locks available) [2003/02/03 10:59:54, 0] printing/nt_printing.c:(281) nt_printing_init: Failed to open nt forms database /usr/local/samba/locks/ntforms.tdb (No locks available) [2003/02/03 10:59:54, 0] printing/nt_printing.c:(281) nt_printing_init: Failed to open nt forms database /usr/local/samba/locks/ntforms.tdb (No locks available) [2003/02/03 11:00:19, 0] printing/nt_printing.c:(281) nt_printing_init: Failed to open nt forms database /usr/local/samba/locks/ntforms.tdb (No locks available) [2003/02/03 11:00:19, 0] printing/nt_printing.c:(281) nt_printing_init: Failed to open nt forms database /usr/local/samba/locks/ntforms.tdb (No locks available) [2003/02/03 11:00:32, 0] printing/nt_printing.c:(281) nt_printing_init: Failed to open nt forms database /usr/local/samba/locks/ntforms.tdb (No locks available) [2003/02/03 11:00:32, 0] printing/nt_printing.c:(281) nt_printing_init: Failed to open nt forms database /usr/local/samba/locks/ntforms.tdb (No locks available) [2003/02/03 11:02:55, 0] printing/nt_printing.c:(281) nt_printing_init: Failed to open nt forms database /usr/local/samba/locks/ntforms.tdb (No locks available) [2003/02/03 11:02:55, 0] printing/nt_printing.c:(281) nt_printing_init: Failed to open nt forms database /usr/local/samba/locks/ntforms.tdb (No locks available) There is nothing strictly reproducible as it seems like a random thing! -----Original Message----- From: Green, Paul [mailto:Paul.Green@stratus.com] Sent: 02 February 2003 15:46 To: 'Grierson, Garry (UK07)'; samba-technical@lists.samba.org Subject: RE: Drive already connected Error in Windows 2000 (please reply to list) Some standard questions... What service pack level for W2K? What operating system are you running under samba 2.2.7? Do you have a reproducible test case you can post? Anything out of the ordinary in your smb.conf file? Sounds like an operating system resource-limit issue...
