I am running Samba 2.2.8-1 installed from rpm on RedHat 8.0, Kernel 2.4.20 I have been experiencing the same issues with Samba/smbfs regarding directory listing errors that I have seen much conversation about on many lists. smb_proc_readdir_long: name=, result=-2, rcls=1, err=123 I am aware of and have downloaded the following patches from http://www.hojdpunkten.ac.se/054/samba/ 00-smbfs-2.3.18-codepage.patch 01-smbfs-2.4.18-lfs.patch 02-smbfs-2.4.18-unicode.patch smbfs-2.4.18-uid32.patch smbmount-2.2.3a-negotiate.patch To this point I have had no luck installing the patches as I have never actually installed a patch in this manner. Does anyone have a set of instructions on installing these patches and any necessary recompiling afterward. Thank you, Doug Watson
