Hello! We are using samba 2.2.7a with a 2.4.20+xfs Kernel. Now we've got the problem that sometimes a database client (which is loaded from a samba share) can't find some files. It's randomly which ones are missing and it's not exactly reproduceable. What I've seen is that after some time the user id of the smbd process changes: 17:47: smbd nico 17:50: smbd bastian 17:51: smbd nico 17:58: smbd root The process keeps on beeing there, the pid does not change. It looks like when the smbd process changes the uid the connection from the client is lost. Under Linux, smbmount seems to reintitate a new connection. I can't really tell what windos does, but what I see is the lack of files (or at least the database client does..whenever I look into the explorer, I can see them...). What should I do? Do you have any suggestions ? If I can debug it or if you know howto solve, please tell me. Thanks in advance, Nico -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
